1 Conservation of migratory birds and their sites and livelihoods improvement of communities living adjacent or on these sites By THANDIWE CHIKOMO & IDRISSA ZEBA
2 Importance of Flyways Every year, an estimated 50 billion birds representing 19% of the world s 10,000 bird species migrate between breeding and non- breeding sites Unfortunately each year more of the habitat they need to complete their journey is declining
3 Why is it important to conserve migratory birds Migratory birds are indicators of the state of environment and can help promote awareness and support for action to address broader environmental issues such as habitat loss, agricultural intensification and climate change
4 Threats to migratory birds along the eastern Atlantic flyway Irrespective of the route used, migratory birds face a number of threats with various consequences on their survival and wellbeing
5 Land use changes (drought, desertification) Hunting Disturbance Disease & parasites Climate change
6
7 The need for networks to safeguard the flyways The international dimension of the threats and the need for conservation measures beyond national boundaries are compelling arguments for stronger collaboration between the BirdLife Partners on a flyway scale. Conservation action at one site or in one country can be seriously undermined if the necessary action is not taken elsewhere on the flyway

9 Objective Establish sustainable and participatory NGO-government partnerships for research, monitoring and conservation action, especially to mitigate threats to migratory birds and their habitats along the west coast of Africa.
10 Project duration & finances Duration: 1 Oct Mar Budget: 1,496,122 Euro Donor: MAVA Foundation (986,759 Euro) Co-finance: 509,363 Euro (from VBN, BirdLife, WIA, LPO and national partners)
11 Expected project results
12 Result 1: Science and Research Improved knowledge of the conservation status, critical sites, habitat requirements, threats to and actions required for migratory birds and their habitats in West Africa.
13 Result 2: Monitoring Operational cost-effective and sustainable monitoring systems, especially to track changes in the status and conservation of migratory birds and their habitats.
14 Result 3: Capacity Building Strong capacity in the coastal zone of West Africa for migratory bird research, conservation and management; strong network of environmental NGOs in the PRCM region with capacity to contribute actively to migratory bird conservation
15 Result 4: Local communities-livelihoods Participatory conservation of key sites and species leading to improved livelihoods and enhanced conditions for migratory birds
16 Result 5: Policy and Advocacy Lasting NGOs-government -MEA, partnerships contributing to improved conservation status of migratory birds and their habitats in West Africa through regional policy and advocacy actions
17 CMB project progress Contract signed with MAVA (Oct. 2010) Inception workshop (7-8 April in Dakar Senegal) Project management unit in place Location (CSSL - Freetown - Sierra Leone) Contracts with 6 partners plus WIA have been signed First instalments paid Biosfera I Cape Verde - to join soon Partners have already started activities on the ground Partners are submitting small grant proposals

23 Objectives The conservation of avian habitats at the Mondah Bay The development of the green businesses by local communities and tourists The monitoring and evaluation of these habitats
24 Expected project results The map of the different habitats and sites to know their extent The map of different levels of habitat disturbances to allow informed monitoring and evaluation plans of these habitats The map of physical and biological characteristics of marine habitats to identify areas suitable exploitation by for local people and the development of a responsible tourism.
