E N D
Some Drivers • Unsustainable utilisationof natural resources (fauna & flora) threatening functionality of ecosystems, thus undermining social and economic development • Insufficient network of protected areas to provide ecological services, socio-economic benefits including climate change mitigation and adaptation • Declining water quality & health of aquatic ecosystems • Escalating Land degradation. • Conversion/loss of wetlands (Estimated 50%)
Some Drivers • Increasing rate of spread of alien invasive species threatening biodiversity and water availability • Current utilisation and conservation patterns levels of resources use compromising ecosystem functionality and provision its goods and services(e.g. water purification, soil enrichment, carbon sinks, pest control, beauty and recreation) • Need for improved regional integration and cross border cooperation in Biodiversity and Conservation management
