mainstreaming biodiversity on the cape flats phase ii


description


The aim of the project is to deepen and spread the lessons for good practice developed in the demonstration phase of the project (i.e. ZA 5048 and ZA 5048.1 "Mainstreaming Biodiversity on the Cape Flats" - popularly known as Cape Flats Nature) in order to build good practice in sustainable management of City conservation sites in a way that benefits the surrounding communities, particularly those where incomes are low and living conditions poor. More specifically, the project will seek to replicate good practice both spatially, by developing additional sites in the City's Biodiversity Network (e.g. Mamre), and institutionally, by working with City Nature Conservation and other relevant institutions to develop an approach to learning through practice across sites, as well as to develop a roll-out strategy for the entire network.
