The report describes the best possible climate scenarios for the middle of the 21st century for the Pangani Basin, utilising a range of General Circulation Models (GCMs) and a state of the art statistical downscaling procedure. This should enhance understanding on the implications of future climate change on the water resources of the Basin for pragmatic planning.

This report addresses study area delineation and site selection for the Pangani Environmental Flow Assessment work. The task was accomplished by first separately delineating relatively homogeneous zones and sub-zones along the river and estuary, and for socio-economic activities in the basin. Thereafter, the resultant delineations were synchronised to produce a scheme for all project work.

This publication has been prepared as part of the Flow Assessment Component of the Pangani River Basin Management Project. Its aim is to collect and synthesize present knowledge on the Pangani River system and its users, and to help promote an integrated approach to future water-allocation decisions. It reports on the condition of the river system in the 2006 dry and wet seasons and identifies key areas of concern.

The objectives of the first edition of the Pangani situation analysis included identifying the resources that occupy the Pangani River Basin (PRB) and the processes and events that affect them, and identifying a series of broad action areas wherein interventions may feasibly be delivered. A second edition was needed to take into account the operation of the Water Resource Management Act in July 2009.

This workbook was produced in order to test and adapt the World Commission on Protected Areas (WCPA) methodologies for use at marine protected areas (MPAs) in the Western Indian Ocean. The workbook is designed to allow for a dynamic process of MPA management based on the lessons learnt from pilot assessments in Kenya, Tanzania and the Seychelles.

This report provides results of testing the Workbook for Assessing Management Effectiveness of Marine Protected Areas in the Western Indian Ocean at eight pilot sites in three countries. The assessment looks at not only the impacts but also the effectiveness of the management process. It does not require the collection of new data, unless that can be done quickly but provides a "snap-shot" of management effectiveness at a particular point in time, with recommendations for improvement.

Le chimpanzé de Schweinfurth est classé “En danger” et est l’objet d’une attention particulière au niveau global pour sa conservation. Cette publication offre un plan sur 10 ans qui, s’il est appliqué de manière complète, permettra le maintien de populations viables du chimpanzé dans son aire de distribution existante. Les chimpanzés sont une excellente espèce phare pour la conservation.

The Pangani River Basin Management Project (2005-2010) has generated technical information (packaged in the reports appearing on this CD). The project consisted of an integrated flows assessment, strengthening water governance and community participation, assessing vulnerability to climate change and promoting appropriate adaptations and supporting integrated water management planning for the basin.

In 2002, a detailed situation analysis of water and environmental issues was done for the Pangani Basin. Following that, a series of pilot projects funded by the Water and Nature Initiative (WANI) of IUCN and by DFID led to the development of a Pangani River Basin Management Project (PRBMP) that continued until 2011. In the final phase of the project, climate change was investigated further.
