DESCRIPTION

This document gives guidelines for implementing BirdLife's global IBA monitoring framework for IBA sites (the habitat, not birds). The framework provides a standardized way to assign scores for the threats to IBAs ("Pressure"), the condition of IBAs ("State") and conservation actions taken at IBAs ("Response"). The guidelines explain how the scoring system works and also outline principles for designing and implementing a sustainable monitoring process.
