Integrated Participatory Ecosystem Management In and Around Protected Areas, Phase I

The overall objective of the full project is to conserve globally significant biodiversity and ensure sustainable use of natural resources through an integrated approach whereby protected areas and community-based sustainable use activities are woven into a "win-win" package. Through this integrated community biodiversity conservation project and the implementation of the provisions of the National Biodiversity Strategy, long term solutions will be sought for better management of water, natural resources, land use, and invasive species.
