Descripción
The project “Strengthening expertise in sub-Saharan Africa on birds and their rational use for communities and their environment” (RESSOURCE) for an Integrated Management of Migratory Waterbirds and Wetlands in Africa, aims to improve natural resource management in the large Sahelian wetlands where local populations derive many benefits, particularly in terms of food security and local development.
The RESSOURCE Project has been funded by the French Facility for Global Environment (€1.5 Million), by a FAO Technical Cooperation Programme (equivalent of €430 000) and by the 11th European Development Fund (EDF) through the Sustainable Wildlife Management (SWM) Programme (€2.3 Million). This Project is being implemented in cooperation with the relevant Governments authorities in Chad, Egypt, Mali, Senegal and Sudan; and with key technical partners, including:
• French Agricultural Research Centre for International Development (CIRAD);
• France’s National Agency for Wildlife and Hunting Management (ONCFS);
• European institute for the management of wild birds and their habitats (OMPO);
• Wetlands International Africa (WIA);
• Birdlife International (BI);
• Research Institute Tour du Valat (TdV)
The RESSOURCE Project is part of the SWM Programme. The SWM Programme is a seven-year African, Caribbean and Pacific Group of States (ACP) initiative that is funded (€45 Million) by the European Union through the 11th European Development Fund.
This biannual RESSOURCE newsletter will be informing our donors and partners about the main highlights and results in the countries.
The lay-out of the newsletter is in line with the SWM Visual Handbook.
