Choco-Andean Corridor
The proposed MSP project would help to preserve the threatened biodiversity of the Southern section of the Choco-Andean ecosystems. Project goals would include: (i) enhance effectiveness of the existing protected natural areas; (ii) secure functional connectivity between 2 major ecosystems of NW Ecuador the Choco bioregion and the Andean Cloud forests; (iii) increase awareness of local communities; (iv) investigate and promote environmentally sustainable methods; and (v) influence regional and national policies to support sustainability.
Conservation and Sustainable Use of Biodiversity in the Andes Region
Project would support the implementation of the National Biodiversity Plan and assist in application of its key strategies (conservation, sustainable and equitable use and improved knowledge of biological resources) in the critical Andes region.
Caribbean Archipelago Biosphere Reserve: Regional Marine Protected Area System
The proposed MSP would support conservation of critical habitats in the Archipelago as a means to protect and restore species diversity, sustainable marine and coastal resource use, and equitable benefit distribution to local populations. Achievement of these objectives is vital to the survival of the native culture, both socially and economically.
Community Based Conservation in the Bamenda Highlands
The objective of the programme is to support the efforts of the Government of Cameroon in general, and the people of the North West Province in particular, to conserve the forest by: raising widespread awareness of forest values; supporting development of management and control systems for sustainable management of forests (capacity building); and providing communities with the capacity to manage resources sustainably (by demonstrating ways of enhancing forest values, and providing advice on ways of sustainably increasing production from land outside the forests).
Amazon Region Protected Areas Program (ARPA)
Project would support expansion and consolidation of strict protected areas in the Amazonian region. Three specific objectives have been identified: (i) identify and create new strict protected areas; (ii) effective establishment of these new areas; and (iii) develop long-term sustainable management tools and mechanisms for effective protection within all Amazonian strict protected areas. The project emerges from a GOB commitment to expand effective strict protection in the Amazon to cover at least 10% (37 million ha) of the biome (370 million ha).
Millennium Ecosystem Assesment
GEF funding will catalyze global, regional, national and local action to conduct a Global Ecosystem Assessment to help bring the best available information and knowledge on ecosystem goods and services to bear on policy and management decisions. It will also build the capacity at all levels to undertake integrated ecosystem assessments and to act on their findings. Through this process, the project will provide an accurate description of the current extent, trends, pressures, conditions and value of different ecosystems of the world, establishing a clear baseline for the year 2000.
Programme for Phasing Out Ozone Depleting Substances
The main objective of this project is to assist Kazakhstan in the rapid phase-out of ODS consistent with international efforts in this direction.
Programme for Phasing Out Ozone Depleting Substances
The project is to implement a comprehensive National Programme for Recovery / Recycling of refrigerants in the refrigeration and air conditioning sub-sectors as part of the Refrigerant Management Plan (RMP). Five training seminars for technicians performing repairs, maintenance and installation of refrigeration and air conditioning equipment will be held to familiarize all involved with the RMP and the National Recovery & Recycling Programme. The project will provide 50 recovery equipment and 50 manual recovery pumps and recovery bags to be distributed to the larger CFC-12 users.
Landfill Methane Recovery Demonstration Project
The project aims to demonstrate self-sustaining modern waste management of municipal solid waste through maximum collection of generated methane, thereby reducing greenhouse gas emissions and creating a revenue stream to cover capital costs and operational costs. The project would demonstrate the feasibilty of developing indigenous landfill gas as an energy source, utilizing an otherwise constant emission of methane into the atmosphere and partially substituting a renewable energy source for imported fossils fuels for electricity generation in Montevideo.
West Java/Jakarta Environmental Management Project
The project will reduce methane gas emissions from municipal solid waste by aerobically composition municipal waste as an alternative to landfill dumping.
