They ? Yes, they. Who are they ? They are the protected area expertise under a commission named WCPA.
What is WCPA (World Commission on Protected Areas) ? The world's premier network of protected area expertise. It is administered by IUCN's Global Programme on Protected Areas. Members : 2500 Spanning 140 countries.
History In 1958 during a general assembly of IUCN in Greece the Provisional Committee on National Parks established.

What WCPA does actually? 1. Helping governments and others plan protected areas by managing. 2. Integrate them into all sectors. But how it works ? By providing strategic advice to policy makers. By strengthening capacity and investment in protected areas. By convening the diverse constituency of protected area stakeholders to address challenging issues.
Objectives Recognize and mainstream protected areas as natural solutions to global challenges, such as - 1. Climate change, 2. Land degradation, 3. Food and water security, 4. Health and well-being. Inspire all people, across generations, geography and cultures to experience and value the wonder of nature through protected areas To promote more support for conservation of natural ecosystems.
So what can be the main objective of WCPA ? To use our acknowledgement to raise the standards and practices of protected area governance and management globally. Objectives

Protected Area Management Categories Category 1 Strict Nature Reserve Category 2 Wilderness Area Category 3 National Park Category 4 Natural Monument or Feature Category 5 Habitat/Species Management Area Category 6 Protected Landscape/Seascape Category 7 Protected Area with sustainable use of natural resources
Current initiative of WCPA WCPA is focused on strengthening the management of existing protected areas as a contribution to addressing climate change issues protected areas store at least 15 percent of terrestrial carbon and supply ecosystem services for disaster reduction water supply food public health All of which enable community-based adaptation.
