The IUCN Polar Bear Specialist Group is a global network of experts dedicated to the conservation of polar bears and their habitats. Formed under the auspices of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), the group focuses on research, monitoring, and policy development to address the challenges facing polar bears, particularly those related to climate change and habitat loss. The group collaborates with various stakeholders, including governments, non-governmental organizations, and indigenous communities, to promote effective conservation strategies. They also provide scientific assessments and recommendations to ensure the long-term survival of polar bears in the wild, emphasizing the importance of maintaining healthy ecosystems in the Arctic region.
