IUCN

L'UICN a favorisé la mise en place au Sénégal et dans d'autres pays d'un réseau sur les zones humides. Le but du réseau est de développer, à long terme, une stratégie nationale de planification et de gestion des zones humides. En 1995, le fleuve Sénégal a été identifié comme site devant faire l'objet d'une attention particulière.

Annual Strategic Reviews focus on key issues and questions related to the performance of organizational units. This publication provides guidance for IUCN managers and review teams in planning and managing these Strategic Reviews. The guide provides an overview of the expected steps in the review process and provides tools, ideas and tips on the things “to do” or “not to forget”.
