- ItemAbsorptive Capacity as a Guiding Concept for Effective Public Sector Management and Conservation of Freshwater Ecosystems(2011-03-24) Murray, Kevin; Roux, Dirk; Nel, Jeanne; Freimund, Wayne
- ItemAdvancing the data-science-policy value chain through SANBI's regional engagement strategy(2018-06-21)The South African National Biodiversity Institute (SANBI) has previously coordinated several conservation projects in other African countries linked to data mobilisation and biodiversity assessments, but these have been largely disconnected and risk undermining long-term impact. Currently, SANBI is conducting three major projects across the continent: the African Biodiversity Challenge (Ghana, Malawi, Namibia and Rwanda), Mapping Biodiversity Priorities (Botswana, Ethiopia and Malawi), and a Biodiversity Assessment for Spatial Prioritisation in Africa (BASPA) (Cameroon, Ethiopia, Gabon, Kenya and Mozambique). These projects span components relating to the data-science-policy value chain and provide opportunity for strategic coordination and synergy to create a critical mass of capacity in partner institutions. Such strategic coordination also extends to collaborating with other programmes of work operating on the continent (such as those being conducted by the Global Biodiversity Information Facility and United Nations – World Conservation Monitoring Centre). The ultimate goal is to create a continental community of practice through a network of strong science-policy hubs that can better cooperate in regional decision-making and global reporting through vehicles such as the Intergovernmental Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES).

- ItemBiodiversity component of the Environmental Impact Assessment screening tool(2017-06-22) Moodley, MarlanieThe Department of Environmental Affairs is in the process of developing an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) screening tool. The South African National Biodiversity Institute (SANBI) is supporting the development of the EIA screening tool by providing the relevant biodiversity layers for inclusion in the tool. These biodiversity layers would serve as sensitive biodiversity that need to be taken into account during the environmental authorisation process. SANBI has developed a list of spatial biodiversity priority and feature layers, including both ecosystem and species level datasets that will be used during screening. In addition to the biodiversity layers provided, SANBI will support the development of protocols for all the biodiversity layers, which will guide the appropriate development that can take place at the site assessment level. This presentation focuses on the layers identified and the framework that will be used to draft the protocol for the relevant layers across a range of development activity types.
