IUCN category vi

Protected Area with Sustainable Use of Natural Resources
Conservation with sustainable use1 park
IUCN Category VI is used for protected areas where conservation remains primary, but where the sustainable use of natural resources is recognized as a legitimate and integrated part of management. These are usually large areas that remain mainly in a natural condition and that conserve ecosystems, associated cultural values, and traditional resource-management systems. The category is especially important in places where conservation is best achieved not by excluding all use, but by supporting forms of use that are low-level, non-industrial, ecologically compatible, and embedded in long-term stewardship.

Example parks
