For more than 10 years, participants in the Information Management Task Force of the World Commission on Projected Areas have conducted strategic needs assessments for information resources and services focused on Protected Areas Managers in Europe, Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Pacific. Among the results of that work have been the PARC Project (Protected Areas Resource Centers), the World Database on Protected Areas (WDPA), PALNet (Protected Areas Learning Network) and the Conservation Commons. The design of these and related efforts will be discussed and the projects will be evaluated.
