Project Overview(1)

Rationale, Goal, Objectives

  • Goal: develop and implement a pilot scheme for

long-term monitoring of bird populations including Palaearctic migrants in African biosphere reserves as a template for application in other biosphere reserves and the wider landscape

  • Duration: from Dec. 2016 to Aug. 2019
  • Budget: ~240.000 € (82% BfN-BMUB // 18% NABU
  • Staff (part-time) : 6 (1 NABU, 3 BirdLife, 2 pilot site)

Project Overview(3)

Expected results

Test a monitoring and conservation framework for birds in two suitable pilot biosphere reserves to obtain a resilient scheme for a broader implementation across Africa and among

  • the heterogeneity of natural habitats
  • the difference of societal contexts and related

footprint

Literature review

  • Collection and reporting of literature review
  • Sharing platform on published knowledge

and on grey literature

Project Progress (2)

Review globally used bird monitoring systems

  • The idea is to be avoid ‘re-inventing the wheel’ and be as objective

as possible

  • Use the existing knowledge as far as it applicable, learn from

experiences and practice to see what is adaptable at the biosphere reserves(BR)

  • The global reach of this exercise is based on the fact that we will

develop and apply pilot schemes – which could then be applied across BR in Africa and other landscapes

  • some relevant schemes identified so far:
  • IBA monitoring framework – BL International.
  • Pan-European Common Bird Monitoring Scheme (PECBMS) - European Bird

Census Council (a similar scheme exists for North America)

  • Common Bird Populations Monitoring in Africa – BL International
  • Water fowl counts/monitoring - Wetlands international
  • Online databases to capture observed birds: e.g. Global Bird Track, Bird atlassing

schemes

Project Progress (3)

Upcoming bird monitoring surveys African biosphere reserves

  • Objective of the survey: to develop an updated

knowledge base about the BR and also support

  • bjectivity in site selection
  • Contacts of African Biosphere Reserves managers

collected

  • The survey is currently under development
  • Request a close collaboration of UNESCO and

Afri/ArabMAB institutions to enhance success of the survey‚

  • Multi criteria for the identification of pilot sites

Project Governance(1)

Why PAC is important?

  • Membership (16) spans organizations with different but

relevant mandates

  • provide strategic advice on the implementation of the

project and achievement of its aims for greater impact

  • provide valuable input from an external eye
  • provide a channel through which relevant information

about the project is made available to relevant stakeholders and processes

  • be involved in the promotion/follow-up of the project
  • provide a forum for discussion on use of the information

and lessons learned from the project

  • Strategic partnership – given the broader goal of the

project

Project Governance(2)

Strategic partnerships

  • shared interest (birds, habitats,

sites, science, policy etc.)

  • complementarity of efforts

none can do it alone

  • sustaining and expanding

monitoring efforts
