This document outlines the various types of protected area categories in Saskatchewan, as well as their accompanying goals, objectives, selection criteria, and management considerations. The document explains the World Conservation Union framework for classifying protected areas, including its management categories and their application. The document then places the province's protected area categories within this framework to provide a preliminary analysis of their level of protection. The concept of representation and Saskatchewan's standard Ecological Land Classification system is used to assess the amount of protected area by ecoregion and for the province as a whole.

ISBN:

A new field of integrated performance measurement is rapidly evolving, in which sustainability is defined in terms of contextually relevant economic, environmental, and social indicators. There is a corresponding international momentum for progress on sustainability-related performance measurement, with a requirement for the development of methodologies and indicator sets that are comparable across various scales and sectors. This publication is a compendium of indicator initiatives and publications which is intended to provide up-to-date and essential information needed by practitioners to establish partnerships and orient themselves in this field. The section on experts and initiatives is arranged geographically by continent, with separate subsections for Canada, the United States, United Nations, and other initiatives with a global mandate. Information given for each initiative or expert includes project and contact name, addresses (including electronic mail) and phone numbers, description of initiative, and publications if any. The bibliographic section is arranged alphabetically by author under topics including theory and methods of sustainable development indicators, ecosystem and ecoregion-based indicators, geographically based indicators, and livelihood system indicators. Includes author, subject, and organisation index, and a list of acronyms.
