MASULLO, Yata; GURGEL, Helen  and  LAQUES, Anne. Methods for evaluating the effectiveness of protect areas: concepts, applications and limitations. GOT [online]. 2019, n.16, pp.203-226. ISSN 2182-1267.  https://doi.org/10.17127/got/2019.16.009.

Over the last two decades, technical methodologies and procedures have emerged to assess the effectiveness of protected areas in order to identify the real capacity of these areas to plan and implement public policies related to socioeconomic and environmental issues. In this context, the present study arose with the purpose of analyzing the methodologies (Padovan, 2003), Ervin (2003), Stolton et al. (2007), Marinelli (2011) and ICMBIO / WWF (2017) applied and adapted to the Brazilian reality, considering methodological structure, application, advantages and limitations. Thus, it is intended to advance in the proposed methodological discussions and to analyze their level of contribution to the planning and management of these protected areas.

Keywords : environmental indicators; Effectiveness; Protect Area; Brazil.
