Social attributes have become indispensable in multifunctional protected areas. As such, human-nature relationships have a significant role to play in the success of protected area objectives. Here, SustainParks strive for partnerships that encourage:

• • • • Social Assessment of Protected Areas (SAPA)
      • Protected area networking
      • Community engagement in protected area management
      • Gender and protected area development
      • Social learning and co-creative activities for developing social indicators for protected areas
