The Gamtoos Valley Collective Land Management Project Phase 1: Assessing the Viability of Collective Land Management as a Model for Conservation in the Baviaanskloof Mega-Reserve Coastal Corridor

Conduct a three-month assessment to support a subsequent private landowner-based project in the Gamtoos Valley, a high-priority corridor linking the Baviaanskloof Megaresrve with the coast, and seek innovative ways (e.g. collective property management) to secure biodiversity on private land. The assessment will be used to develop a plan of action to secure hectares within the conservation estate while enhancing private landowners’ perceptions of the value of conservation initiatives.
