The project will involve all ten countries of the southern African region in a collaborative programme of activities related to national implementation of the CBD. The project is designed to improve cooperation and to build capacity both within and between participating nations and to integrate sustainable use into biodiversity conservation and other sectoral programmes. The project will produce five key outputs, each arising from a series of targeted activities.
