Abstract

Conservation planning is an answer to the current species extinction crisis, which helps to achieve the global sustainable development and conservation of biodiversity goals. National Action Plans (PANs) started in 2004 following the model developed by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), and based on the development of conservation projects carried out in Brazil. After a decade and a half, 68 PANs were developed for faunal endangered species. At the end of 2019, 46 PANs are in effect covering 877 species (74.8%), supporting practically all groups of animals and all Brazilian biomes. The PAN models have evolved over time to increase the number of covered species, habitat and stakeholders, contributing more robustly to the achievement of Aichi and SDGs goals.
