Please report on the result /achievement of the actions taken:
Through the direct engagement of IUCN constituents across the region, we have a better understanding of the types of wildlife economy projects that are been undertaken, and a sense of the major gaps. We have also been able to narrow the focus of the resolution to specific strengths of the IUCN in leveraging relevant networks across the region to pick up on the implementation of recommendations from a range of research initiatives
What challenges have you encountered in implementing this Resolution and what measures have you taken to overcome them?:
Despite much recent research attention on the wildlife economy in East and Southern Africa there have been challenges in turning research into a cohesive programme, partly because the One Programme concept is not well understood among IUCN constituents. As a result, we intend to use IUCN structures to disseminate the results of primary research on the wildlife economy (see future actions)
