Project Title: Mainstreaming of Biodiversity Conservation Into River Management United Nations Development Programme Country: MALAYSIA PROJECT DOCUMENT Project Title: Mainstreaming of Biodiversity Conservation into River Management UNDAF Outcome(s): N/A – Malaysia does not have an UNDAF UNDP Strategic Plan 2014-2017 Primary Outcome: 2.5. Legal and regulatory frameworks, policies and institutions enabled to ensure the conservation, sustainable use, and access and benefit sharing of natural resources, biodiversity and ecosystems, in line with international conventions and national legislation UNDP Strategic Plan 2014-2017 Secondary Outcome: Output 1.3. Solutions developed at national and sub-national levels for sustainable management of natural resources, ecosystem services, chemicals and waste Expected CP Outcome(s): Priority 2: Sustainable and resilient development: Implementation of a national development agenda that enables green growth through climate-resilient measures, sustainable management of energy and natural resources, and improved risk governance Expected CPAP Output (s): Priority 2b: Value natural capital, reduce environmental impacts and improve access to quality ecosystem services for low income households Executing Entity/Implementing Partner: Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment Implementing Entity/Responsible Partners: Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment, Department of Irrigation and Drainage Malaysia; and Global Environment Centre (GEC) Brief Description Malaysia has some 157 river systems, as well a variety of tropical wetlands, forests and marine ecosystems, representing several Global 200 Ecoregions, and it is recognized as one of 17 mega-diverse countries in the world. Its river systems as well as riparian and catchment forests support an immense diversity of aquatic and terrestrial biodiversity, including more than 600 freshwater fish species. River and floodplain wetland systems occupy some 3.9 million ha or 10% of the country’s land area. These river systems provide ecosystem services benefiting both rural communities and urban societies, including water supply, artisanal fisheries, the aquarium fish industry, transport routes, tourism and recreation. However, Malaysia’s rivers face threats from a wide range of pressures that threaten their biodiversity and ecological stability, with ongoing loss of genetic resources, ecosystem services and national and local socio-economic benefits. As called for in Malaysia’s Common Vision on Biodiversity, the long term solution that this project will pursue is to maintain the integrity of aquatic ecosystems through mainstreaming biodiversity considerations into river basin management. Accordingly, federal and state agencies concerned with river basin management will have effective collaborative arrangements in place, and riverine biodiversity will be managed according to an integrated river basin and ecosystem-based approach. However the following barriers constrain the achievement of the vision and plan: (1) Sub-optimal enabling framework and capacity for riverine biodiversity management; and (2) absence of successfully demonstrated experiences in integrated river management. In the baseline situation, the majority of river sections and associated biodiversity are found outside the protected area system in Malaysia. Therefore, it is critical for the conservation of riverine biodiversity that clear strategies and plans are developed to conserve riverine biodiversity in productive landscapes covering more than 80% of Malaysia’s land area. The government agencies and other stakeholders responsible for management of these areas do not normally have biodiversity conservation as one of their main objectives. The Government’s principal focus in river management remains flood mitigation, water supply and pollution control with little consideration for riverine biodiversity and habitat management. Uncoordinated management of riverine areas will continue to put pressure on biodiversity from habitat conversion, degradation and pollution. A lack of inter-agency coordination, strategy, capacity and resources will mean that threats to riverine biodiversity will continue to grow, and will likely lead to further habitat fragmentation and destruction. It is therefore imperative to mainstream biodiversity conservation principles into their work and responsibilities, as well as in the practices of other stakeholders. In the alternative scenario enabled by the GEF, the institutional barriers to integrated and coordinated riverine landscape management will be removed at the national and state levels, backed by development and adoption of an inter-agency strategy to mainstream biodiversity into river management, which provides the foundation for coordinated planning, management including enforcement and compliance monitoring mechanisms. The capacity of key institutions responsible for river management will be strengthened. Integrated riverine biodiversity management will be demonstrated for three different situations in Peninsular Malaysia and Sabah. The GEF financing will also help catalyze support from both private and public sectors as well as communities towards conservation objectives in the project areas, and provide a mechanism to use such support to generate sustained long-term improvements in riverine biodiversity. The Project Objective is to mainstream biodiversity conservation into riverine landscapes through improved river planning and management practices. Component 1 addresses the need for an operational national institutional framework and capacity for a more integrated and holistic approach to river management that takes riverine biodiversity into account, while Component 2 will demonstrate best management practices for riverine habitats in three different situations (a forested water supply reservoir catchment area, an urban river, and a rural river impacted by plantation development and smallholder land uses). The global environmental benefits that will be secured by the overall project will result from strengthened sustainable management of Malaysia’s river systems and associated riverine buffer zones and catchment areas that specifically takes into account biodiversity conservation. The areas covered by major river basins include several Global 200 Ecoregions in East and West Malaysia, including tropical lowland, mangrove, peat and freshwater swamp-forests, submontane and montane forests. A wide range of globally threatened species occur in the project demonstration sites’ riparian forests as well as rare and endemic riverine species. The project supports the objectives of 10th Malaysia Plan, National Wetlands Policy 2004, National Integrated River Basin Management Plan and Malaysia’s Common Vison on Biodiversity, 2008. It also benefits from 3 on-going UNDP projects in Malaysia, namely, PA, NBSAP, IC-CFS projects. 2 Programme Period: 2016-2020 Total resources required (USD): $ 8,984,000 Total allocated resources (USD): Atlas Award ID: 00087899 Project: 00094781 GEF: $1,404,000 PIMS: # 5281 Start date: June 2016 Other (in-kind & in-cash): End Date: May 2019 Other (partner managed resources): $7,580,000 Management Arrangements: NIM National Government (NRE): $5,850,000 Selangor State Government: $250,000 PAC Meeting Date: 10 April 2015 Perak State Government: $250,000 Sabah State Government: $250,000 GEC: $720,000 UNDP: $200,000 Cost Sharing: $60,000 GEF GMS 9.5% of USD 1,404,000 = USD 133,380 Agreed by Economic Planning Unit: Agreed by UNDP: Agreed by Implementing Partner: 3 Table of Contents 1.

  • Towards a Sustainable Landscape of Urban Parks in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia: a Study from a Management Perspective
    Towards a sustainable landscape of urban parks in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia: A study from a management perspective By: Roziya Ibrahim A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Social Science in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Landscape University of Sheffield United Kingdom May 2016 ABSTRACT Kuala Lumpur’s urban parks have evolved to fulfil the needs of its multi-cultural urban communities since the conception of its first public park in the late 19th century. Nevertheless, the management and maintenance of these tropical urban parks are currently under pressure as local authorities have no longer adequate funding to maintain the existing landscape as they have to focus on addressing the impact of environmental problems; particularly frequent flooding that has been a never-ending issue facing the city. There are growing pressures on resources, especially on water supply, in response to urbanization and population growth. Nevertheless, Kuala Lumpur’s urban parks were highly dependent on potable water for landscape maintenance at a time of growing demand for this limited resource. There is a possibility that these urban parks can be managed in a more sustainable manner, which may consequently reduce their dependency on potable water resource for irrigation. They might also make a more positive contribution to managing stormwater control and increasing habitat diversity. The challenge, therefore, is to try and achieve a more sustainable, ecologically informed design and management practice without alienating park users, management, and maintenance staff. This research aims to investigate the potential of changing the design and management of Kuala Lumpur’s urban parks towards a more ecologically sustainable landscape practice.
