The Botswana CBNRM Support Programme was initiated
as a joint initiative by SNV-Netherlands Development Organisation
and IUCN - The World Conservation Union in 1999. It was built
on SNV's experience in CBNRM pilot projects at the grassroots
level and on IUCN's expertise in information sharing, documentation
of project approaches, and establishing dialogue between Non-Governmental
Organisations, Government and private sector on a national,
regional and international level.
The CBNRM Support Programme has entered its second phase beginning
of 2004 and is planned up to the end of December 2006. The current
programme activities are funded by the Regional CBNRM initiative
of WWF SARPO aiming at “CBNRM adopted as a mainstream
strategy for rural development in Southern Africa.”
The direct beneficiaries of the project are NGOs, Private Sector
and Government Departments, which implementation, advisory and
facilitation capacity will be strengthened to provide better
services to rural communities involved in CBNRM, the indirect
beneficiaries.
