Description:

This quarterly Sustainable Wildlife Management (SWM) Programme newsletter is informing our donors and partners about the main highlights and results on the field across fifteen countries. Interview with donors, partners, local staff, videos, facts and figures, events are also be presented.

The SWM Programme is the first international initiative to tackle the wild meat challenge by addressing both wildlife conservation and food security. The SWM Programme is an initiative of the Organisation of African, Caribbean, and Pacific States (OACPS), which is funded by the European Union (EU) and co-financed by the French Facility for Global Environment (FFEM) and the French Development Agency (AFD). It is being implemented by a dynamic consortium of four partners with expertise in wildlife conservation and food security:

· Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO)

· Center for International Forestry Research (CIFOR)

· French Agricultural Research Centre for International Development (CIRAD)

· Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS).
