(EIA) Undertaken for the 3-Dimensional (3D) Marine Seismic Survey Programme Proposed by GALP Through Its Namibian Subsidiary Windhoek PEL 23 B.V
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This document presents the results of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) undertaken for the 3-dimensional (3D) marine seismic survey programme proposed by GALP through its Namibian subsidiary Windhoek PEL 23 B.V. in the PEL82, in Namibia. This document has been prepared by Environmental Resources Management Iberia S.A (ERM). The proposed survey area lies 100 km west of the closest point in the Namibian coast and 190 km Northwest from Walvis Bay, in water depths varying between 200 and 1,800 meters. Windhoek PEL 23 B.V. intends to acquire approximately 3,000 full fold km 2 of seismic area (see Figure 0.1 ). Figure 0.1 Location of PEL82 Source: ERM, 2017 ENVIRONMENTAL RESOURCES MANAGEMENT WI NDHOEK PEL 23 B.V. 8 Legislation, legal and institutional framework standards In Namibia, the main environmental institution is the Ministry of Environment and Tourism (MET). It is the competent body responsible for aspects related with natural resources management, conservation and environment, including environmental management of in-country resources and approval of all sector EIAs.

Central African Republic Giraffe Conservation Status Report February 2020
Country Profile Central African Republic Giraffe Conservation Status Report February 2020 General statistics Size of country: 622,984 km² Size of protected areas / percentage protected area coverage: 13% Species and subspecies In 2016 the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) completed the first detailed assessment of the conservation status of giraffe, revealing that their numbers are in peril. This was further emphasised when the majority of the IUCN recognised subspecies where assessed in 2018 – some as Critically Endangered. While this update further confirms the real threat to one of Africa’s most charismatic megafauna, it also highlights a rather confusing aspect of giraffe conservation: how many species/subspecies of giraffe are there? The IUCN currently recognises one species (Giraffa camelopardalis) and nine subspecies of giraffe (Muller et al. 2016) historically based on outdated assessments of their morphological features and geographic ranges. The subspecies are thus divided: Angolan giraffe (G. c. angolensis), Kordofan giraffe (G. c. antiquorum), Masai giraffe (G. c. tippleskirchi), Nubian giraffe (G. c. camelopardalis), reticulated giraffe (G. c. reticulata), Rothschild’s giraffe (G. c. rothschildi), South African giraffe (G. c. giraffa), Thornicroft’s giraffe (G. c. thornicrofti) and West African giraffe (G. c. peralta). However, over the past decade GCF together with their partner Senckenberg Biodiversity and Climate Research Centre (BiK-F) have performed the first-ever comprehensive DNA sampling and analysis (genomic, nuclear and mitochondrial) from all major natural populations of giraffe throughout their range in Africa. As a result, an update to the traditional taxonomy now exists. This study revealed that there are four distinct species of giraffe and likely five subspecies (Fennessy et al. -

Preliminary Mapping of Water and Climate Change Governance In
Preliminary mapping of water and climate change governance in Lusaka, Windhoek and Maputo Celeste Renaud, Dianne Scott, Davison Muchadenyika, Kornelia Iipinge, Hecralito Macavele, Genito Maure, John Mfune, Brenda Mwalukanga, Izidine Pinto and Gilbert Siame FRACTAL Briefing Note June 2018 Produced by the Decision-making Cluster FRACTAL The Future Resilience for African Cities and Lands (FRACTAL) project aims to address the challenge of providing accessible, timely, applicable and defensible climate information that is needed by decision makers operating at the city-region scale in southern Africa. FRACTAL has been running since June 2015. It is part of the Future Climate for Africa (FCFA) multi-consortia programme. FCFA’s major objective is to generate fundamentally new climate science focused on Africa, and to ensure that this science has an impact on human development across the continent. FCFA is funded by the Department for International Development (DFID) and the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC). These knowledge products have been developed to share findings from the research in the hope of fostering dialogue and eliciting feedback to strengthen the research. The opinions expressed are therefore those of the author(s) and are not necessarily shared by DFID, NERC or other programme partners. 1. Introduction The aim of this brief is to document the first step of the governance analysis. It: • Provides an overview of the FRACTAL project. • Briefly summarises the governance configuration concept used to frame the governance research. • Describes the process of gathering the data via open-ended interviews in the three cities of Lusaka, Windhoek and Maputo. • Presents an initial visualisation of the data which is presented as a set of governance maps.
