United Nations Environment Programme World Conservation Monitoring Centre
With our partners worldwide we source, collate and verify information on biodiversity and ecosystems which we then synthesise and analyse to create knowledge fit for global decision making.
The UNEP World Conservation Monitoring Centre (UNEP-WCMC) is a collaboration between the United Nations Environment Programme, the world's foremost intergovernmental environmental organization, and WCMC, a UK-based charity. UNEP-WCMC is UNEP’s specialist biodiversity assessment arm, and the Centre for UNEP’s collaboration with WCMC.
