As of today, almost 6000 species have been assessed for their conservation status in the Mediterranean region, and 25%* were classified as Endangered. With its compelling design, this printable infographic provides a glance about this situation: which species are threatened, where and why. It also introduces a promising first step to stop their decline.

Video: The Mediterranean Hotspot: from knowledge to action to preserve its biodiversity

Infographic video about the current conservation actions and knowledge on the conservation status of more than 3,000 species at the Mediterranean level, with key figures for all the taxonomic groups assessed in the last 10 years, as well as the Key Biodiversity Areas identified by the IUCN Centre for Mediterranean Cooperation. This work helps support countries in planning and implementing conservation measures in line with their commitments made in international conventions such as CBD Aichi Targets 11 and 12 and the Barcelona Convention.

Video: Mediterranean Marine Protected Areas as nature-based solutions to climate change

Mediterranean Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) have an important role in providing ecosystem services, mitigating the impacts of climate change and increasing ecological and socioeconomic resilience of biodiversity and surrounding coastal communities.

Video: Atlas of Mediterranean seamounts and seamount-like structures

The seamounts of the Mediterranean represent some of the most important structures in the functioning of the entire ecosystem. Our knowledge about them still remains scarce. The Atlas will certainly help to find the path towards an effective network of marine protected areas covering deep sea and offshore marine environments in the Mediterranean.
