Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) are, simply put, the most important places for life on Earth. Defined as sites that contribute significantly to the global persistence of biodiversity, these terrestrial, freshwater and marine ecosystems are critical to the survival of species and biological diversity. They are the basic building blocks of CEPF’s conservation strategies. Tonkin snub-nosed monkey population at Khau Ca KBA Learn more at www.keybiodiversityareas.org.
