Project Budget (GEF Trust Fund): $ 5,359,633 Co-financing: $ 34,500,000 Total Project Budget: $ 39,859,633 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Landscapes of Miombo and Mopane woodlands in Angola are exposed to varying degrees of land degradation due to the expansion of agricultural lands, unsustainable charcoal production and overgrazing in grassland areas. These trends are accelerated by population pressure, the associated demand for food and other ecosystem services, the expansion of settlements and climate change. Angola also faces land governance challenges, including issues of land tenure security and the need to accord environmental protection to important natural assets -- in particular, forests and water bodies in dryland areas. This project addresses some of these challenges through the adoption of SLM/SFM practices across selected landscapes in southern Angola, covering an area of at least 1.3 million hectares of Miombo and Mopane woodlands ecosystems. The project is expected to positively contribute to the achievement, by 2030, of Angola’s Land Degradation Neutrality (LDN) Target, which had been set in 2018 as a national commitment under the UNCCD. The national LDN Target has been since mainstreamed into the country’s climate change and national development policies’ and frameworks. More specifically, the project will pioneer the application of two important LDN principles in Angola: (1) the development and implementation of integrated land-use planning tools for the management of landscapes by embedding in the planning the neutrality mechanism; and (2) the application of the LDN response hierarchy in the active management of the landscapes. The latter implies the consistent and tracked management of land to avoid, reduce or reverse degradation. The present project is part of the Sustainable Forest Management Impact Program on Dryland Sustainable Landscapes (the Global DSL IP), approved by the GEF in 2019 and benefitting 11 countries in Africa and Asia. The objective of the 2 Angola Child Project under the DSL IP is to support a transformational shift towards a sustainable and integrated management of multi-use dryland landscapes of the Miombo and Mopane ecoregions of Angola (Okavango and Cunene river basins) following Land Degradation Neutrality (LDN) principles. The project objective will be delivered through three components. Component 1 focuses on the strengthening of the enabling environment and frameworks for LDN and the management of landscapes. Component 2 will help Angola develop an integrated land-use planning (ILUP) for two selected landscapes and support the implementation of priority actions embedded in the plan, which will have a long-term sustainability goal. The landscapes constitute sub-basins of the Okavango and Cunene river basins and are located in Cuando Cubango and Cunene provinces. The development and implementation of the ILUPs will engage all relevant stakeholders and propose solutions that reconcile land-use goals under various sectors. Also, under the second Component, the project will focus on the development of sustainable value chains based on dryland products. The realization of specific SLM/SFM goals within multi-use landscapes will count on specialized rural advisory services conveyed by FAO, including the strengthening of land-users’ capacity for SLM/SFM through Farmer Field Schools (FFS) and Forest-Farm Facility (FFF) models – both being signature support programs of FAO. The project will equally strengthen support the organization of Community Seed Banks (CSB) and various other actions linked to the sustainability of dryland value chains and local livelihoods. Component 3 will focus on strengthening national and landscape level assessment and monitoring for LDN, while facilitating national stakeholders’ participation in regional and global level initiatives under the DSL IP, which will improve Angola’s access to best practices and other capacity development resources for LDN. Among them are the Regional Exchange Mechanism (REM), which involves 6 other countries in southern African that form part of the DSL IP’s Miombo Cluster. These countries share not only the Miombo-Mopane Woodlands ecoregion and various transboundary river basins, but also common challenges and the potential to jointly develop solutions. Global Environmental Benefits (GEBs) to be generated by the project include the achievement of the following targets aligned with GEF Core Indicators: The ILUP will apply to at least 633,278 ha (with a roadmap plan to cover 1.36 million hectares, corresponding the sum of the surfaces of Sub-basins #1 and #2). Within this wider landscape, priority areas of multi-use landscapes will come under improved management through on the ground interventions, covering at least 35,742 hectares, which has been classified according to land cover classes, predominant land-use systems and where socio-economic features have been studied. An initial strategy for management of intervention sites according to the LDN response hierarchy was devised. Much of GEBs in terms of land under improved management will be delivered through production systems covering some 85% of the surface area, while the remainder 15% represents would be in forest fragments to which different degrees of forest protection would apply. Some 107,722 hectares of forests will be covered by ILUPs, with at least 16,825 ha under direct improved management through the adoption suitable sustainable forest management (SFM) techniques, where ecosystem functions or structure can be potentially restored and generate multiple benefits. The ecosystem rehabilitation/restoration strategy has great potential for replication, 1,000 ha at a time. Another approach to forest protection includes the development of Community-Based Forest Management (CBFM), a promising land stewardship model that is relatively new in Angola but has good chances of being proven sustainable, if adequately supported. As for other land uses, ILUPs will cover at least 525,556 ha, of which croplands account for 217,056 ha, rangelands 141,200 ha, and 167,300 ha of mixed land uses. In addition, direct interventions on croplands and rangelands are expected to cover an area of 4,929 ha and 13,988 ha respectively. Within the and beyond the targeted landscapes, there is scope for identifying additional areas for improved management. Furthermore, an improved and integrated management of land, soil, water and forests resources will generate GEBs through recognized AFOLU methodologies, resulting in the mitigation of 1,047,911 tCO2e emissions over a 20-year period. Up to 5,000 people (45% Women) are expected to benefit directly from the project’s activities within the two selected landscapes in southern Angola, and a much larger number will benefit indirectly, if the wider landscape, which

  • Angolan Giraffe (Giraffa Camelopardalis Ssp
    Angolan Giraffe (Giraffa camelopardalis ssp. angolensis) Appendix 1: Historical and recent geographic range and population of Angolan Giraffe G. c. angolensis Geographic Range ANGOLA Historical range in Angola Giraffe formerly occurred in the mopane and acacia savannas of southern Angola (East 1999). According to Crawford-Cabral and Verissimo (2005), the historic distribution of the species presented a discontinuous range with two, reputedly separated, populations. The western-most population extended from the upper course of the Curoca River through Otchinjau to the banks of the Kunene (synonymous Cunene) River, and through Cuamato and the Mupa area further north (Crawford-Cabral and Verissimo 2005, Dagg 1962). The intention of protecting this western population of G. c. angolensis, led to the proclamation of Mupa National Park (Crawford-Cabral and Verissimo 2005, P. Vaz Pinto pers. comm.). The eastern population occurred between the Cuito and Cuando Rivers, with larger numbers of records from the southeast corner of the former Mucusso Game Reserve (Crawford-Cabral and Verissimo 2005, Dagg 1962). By the late 1990s Giraffe were assumed to be extinct in Angola (East 1999). According to Kuedikuenda and Xavier (2009), a small population of Angolan Giraffe may still occur in Mupa National Park; however, no census data exist to substantiate this claim. As the Park was ravaged by poachers and refugees, it was generally accepted that Giraffe were locally extinct until recent re-introductions into southern Angola from Namibia (Kissama Foundation 2015, East 1999, P. Vaz Pinto pers. comm.). BOTSWANA Current range in Botswana Recent genetic analyses have revealed that the population of Giraffe in the Central Kalahari and Khutse Game Reserves in central Botswana is from the subspecies G.

  • Taxonomy of Tropical West African Bivalves V. Noetiidae
    Bull. Mus. nati. Hist, nat., Paris, 4' sér., 14, 1992, section A, nos 3-4 : 655-691. Taxonomy of Tropical West African Bivalves V. Noetiidae by P. Graham OLIVER and Rudo VON COSEL Abstract. — Five species of Noetiidae are described from tropical West Africa, defined here as between 23° N and 17°S. The Noetiidae are represented by five genera, and four new taxa are introduced : Stenocista n. gen., erected for Area gambiensis Reeve; Sheldonella minutalis n. sp., Striarca lactea scoliosa n. subsp. and Striarca lactea epetrima n. subsp. Striarca lactea shows considerable variation within species. Ecological factors and geographical clines are invoked to explain some of this variation but local genetic isolation could not be excluded. The relationships of the shallow water West African noetiid species are analysed and compared to the faunas of the Mediterranean, Caribbean, Panamic and Indo- Pacific regions. Stenocista is the only genus endemic to West Africa. A general discussion on the relationships of all the shallow water West African Arcoidea is presented. The level of generic endemism is low and there is clear evidence of circumtropical patterns of similarity between species. The greatest affinity is with the Indo-Pacific but this pattern is not consistent between subfamilies. Notably the Anadarinae have greatest similarity to the Panamic faunal province.

NFMA Working Paper No 41/P– Rome, Luanda 2009 Monitorização e Avaliação de Recursos Florestais Nacionais As florestas são essenciais para o bem-estar da humanidade. Constitui as fundações para a vida sobre a terra através de funções ecológicas, a regulação do clima e recursos hídricos e servem como habitat para plantas e animais. As florestas também fornecem uma vasta gama de bens essenciais, tais como madeira, comida, forragem, medicamentos e também, oportunidades para lazer, renovação espiritual e outros serviços. Hoje em dia, as florestas sofrem pressões devido ao aumento de procura de produtos e serviços com base na terra, o que resulta frequentemente na degradação ou transformação da floresta em formas insustentáveis de utilização da terra. Quando as florestas são perdidas ou severamente degradadas. A sua capacidade de funcionar como reguladores do ambiente também se perde. O resultado é o aumento de perigo de inundações e erosão, a redução na fertilidade do solo e o desaparecimento de plantas e animais. Como resultado, o fornecimento sustentável de bens e serviços das florestas é posto em perigo. Como resposta do aumento de procura de informações fiáveis sobre os recursos de florestas e árvores tanto ao nível nacional como Internacional l, a FAO iniciou uma actividade para dar apoio à monitorização e avaliação de recursos florestais nationais (MANF). O apoio à MANF inclui uma abordagem harmonizada da MANF, a gestão de informação, sistemas de notificação de dados e o apoio à análise do impacto das políticas no processo nacional de tomada de decisão.
