Project description

13.The GEF alternative scenario will mainstream conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity into production landscapes for the integrated environmental management of coastal marine areas and for the benefit of the coastal populations. It is framed within the GEF biodiversity focal area strategy, more specifically Objective 4 (BD-4): Mainstream biodiversity conservation and sustainable use into production landscapes/seascapes and sectors; Program 9: Managing the Human-Biodiversity Interface.
