The Biodiversity Management Programme (BMP) is an initiative funded by European Commission (EC) through Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD) aiming to contribute to poverty reduction by improving the social and economic wellbeing of the populations in IGAD region, through a better regional integration in the environmental sector. Its purpose is the conservation and sustainable management of the ecosystems in the IGAD region, in order to contribute to lasting ecosystem goods and services. ICRAF is one of the BMP implementing partners and is managing one of the three projects in the Horn of Africa to develop collaborative management in 3 cross-boundaries land and seascapes between Kenya-Somalia, Djibouti-Ethiopia and Ethiopia-South Sudan. ICRAF is managing a 4 years Tana-Kipini-Laga Badana Bush Bushle Land and Seascape (North East Kenya and South East Somalia) project which commenced in November, 2013 and aims to contribute to poverty reduction by improving social and economic wellbeing of the populations in the IGAD region through better regional integration in environmental sector. The project implements 12 activities which focus on cross border exchange; Land Use Planning; Community conservation; Biodiversity value chains; Agroforestry interventions as key thematic areas.
