this is not the same as protection title. It would make sense for cases like 
natura2000, i.e. protected sites that are also listed in the natura 2000 
network.
https://ec.europa.eu/environment/nature/natura2000/

related_law is ok for all sites designated by law, while it might also be seen 
to extend to international treaties, it would probably not be suitable to tie 
together networks of sites that are controlled by non-governmental actors.
