IUCN category v

Protected Landscape/Seascape
People and nature1 park
IUCN Category V recognizes that some of the world's most valuable conservation landscapes are not places without people, but places shaped by a long and continuing interaction between people and nature. In these areas, biodiversity, cultural identity, local livelihoods, scenic quality, and historical land-use patterns are often deeply intertwined. The category is used where safeguarding the integrity of that interaction is itself essential to conservation. Category V is therefore especially relevant to lived-in landscapes and seascapes whose value depends on continuity, stewardship, and the maintenance of characteristic ecological and cultural patterns over time.

Example parks
