The Green List is a set of metrics measuring conservation success, initiated at the International Union for Conservation of Nature World Conservation Congress in 2016.
The Green List sets the most stringent criteria for evaluating conservation activities and protected area management. Adhering to these criteria helps conservation sites identify future priorities.
Cat Tien national park registered for the Green List in September 2018, with its application developed since January 2022.
Currently, 10 national parks and conservation sites nationwide are completing procedures to earn the recognition. The Bidoup-Nui Ba, Bach Ma, and Cuc Phuong national parks are expected to finalise their proposals for IUCN certification in 2024./.
