State of the AONB Report

In order to assess the effectiveness of both the AONB Management Plan and the broader environmental condition of the Isle of Wight AONB, monitoring and evaluation mechanisms should be put in place. These should be simple and easily understood; relevant to the landscape character of the AONB; capable of repetition over time so that any trends become apparent; and where possible, based on standard procedures to enable comparison with the national family of protected landscapes.

It is the intention of the Isle of Wight AONB Partnership to identify indicators within each of the AONB People and AONB Place themes. This information would be used to contribute to an overall ‘State of the Isle of Wight AONB’ Report.  The first of these reports will be published in due course.
