Conservation Outcomes are the full set of quantitative and justifiable conservation targets in a hot spot that need to be achieved to prevent biodiversity loss. Having these targets in place ensures that conservation action focuses on the species at greatest risk of extinction and the sites and landscapes that are most important for their protection. These targets are defined at three levels, which are species, sites, and landscapes, representing discrete units along an ecological continuum and using a data-driven process and standardized criteria.
