Project Summary:
Cape Verde’s Brava island hosts 21 endangered and/or vulnerable endemic plant species. Overgrazing is a primary threat to its biodiversity, causing erosion and desertification, exacerbated by droughts that threaten the livelihoods of the island’s 6,000 inhabitants. This project will address Brava’s multiple environmental, climate and livelihoods challenges by piloting and implementing practical conservation actions and facilitating the development of an island-wide, community-based grazing management plan, a first in Cape Verde, which will be promoted as a model for other islands.
