The dashboard of the EU Biodiversity Strategy is showing progress of the EU and its Member States towards the targets set for 2030
SUMMARY
COHERENT NETWORK OF PROTECTED AREAS
Target 1 - Legally protect a minimum of 30% of the EU’s land area and a minimum of 30% of the EU’s sea area, and integrate ecological corridors, as part of a true Trans-European Nature Network.
Subtarget: 1.1 - Legally protect a minimum of 30% of the EU's land area
Indicator: 1.1.1 - Terrestrial protected area coverage
This indicator measures the percentage of land, by Member State and at EU 27 level, covered by protected areas. It considers both nationally protected areas and Natura 2000 sites. Values are calculated and provided every year by the European Environment Agency based on Member States reports.

Target 2 - Strictly protect at least a third of the EU’s protected areas, including all remaining EU primary and old-growth forests.
Indicator under development.
Target 3 - Effectively manage all protected areas, defining clear conservation objectives and measures, and monitoring them appropriately.
Indicator under development.
EU NATURE RESTORATION PLAN
Strengthening the EU legal framework for nature restoration
Target 4 - Legally binding EU nature restoration targets to be proposed in 2021, subject to an impact assessment. By 2030, significant areas of degraded and carbon-rich ecosystems are restored. Habitats and species show no deterioration in conservation trends and status; and at least 30% reach favourable conservation status or at least show a positive trend.
Subtarget: 4.1 - Species show no deterioration in conservation trends and status
Indicator: 4.1.1 - Common bird index by type of species
This indicator is a multi-species index measuring changes in population abundances at EU level of all common bird species (n=168) as well as those associated with specific habitats: common farmland bird species (n=39) and common forest bird species (n=34).The three indices give estimated bird numbers relative to the reference year 1990, when their value is set at 100. Values are calculated every year by the European Bird Census Council through the Pan-European Common Bird Monitoring Scheme programme, based on data from citizen science, and further provided by Eurostat.

Indicator documentation
Tag: SDG_15_60
Unit: Index measuring changes in population abundances of bird species compared to the reference year 1990 (Index 1990 = 100).
DPSIR: State
Method: 1) Calculation of national indices per species by coordinators of national monitoring schemes; 2) calculation of composite multispecies indices (common farmland birds, common forest birds and all common birds) using Monte Carlo simulations as described in Soldaat et al. (2017) and an R-script (R-TRIM) developed by Statistics Netherlands (2017). No rare species are included, although some species common in certain Member States may be considered rare in others. The species covered under the common farmland and common forest indices are deemed to be dependent on that particular kind of habitat for feeding and nesting. The index of common farmland birds covers 39 species that depend on farmland (farmland specialists). The index of common forest birds covers 34 species that depend on forests (forest specialists). The index of all common birds covers both farmland and forest birds plus 95 other common species that depend on other habitats, including built-up areas, urban parks and gardens (generalist species). The list of species is available on PECBMS website (https://pecbms.info/methods/pecbms-methods/3-multispecies-indicators/species-selection-and-classification/). Each of the three EU bird indices is presented as a smoothed time series with 95% confidence limits. More information can be found in the metadata of the original dataset on the Eurostat website (https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/cache/metadata/en/env_biodiv_esms.htm).

Target 9 - Three billion additional trees are planted in the EU, in full respect of ecological principles.
Indicator: 2.0.1 - Number of trees planted in the EU as part of the 3 Billion Trees Pledge
This indicator counts the number of planted trees, by Member State and at EU27 level, as part of the EU 3 Billion Trees Pledge. Values are calculated and produced by the European Environment Agency, based on values reported by Organizations participating at the Pledge.

Unit: Number of planted trees
DPSIR: Response
Method: Calculation of the number of planted trees based on data reported by the 3 Billion Trees Pledge reporting organisations. More information on the data collected can be found here: https://ec.europa.eu/environment/pdf/forests/swd_3bn_trees.pdf.

Comments: The original indicator of European Environment Agency provides the number and area of additional planted trees (ha), per administrative region (NUTS3) in the EU27, per forest type, per land use, per ownership, per type of action. Additionality means to plant 3 billion trees between 2020 and 2030 in addition to those that would be planted or grow anyway under a business-as-usual scenario.
