Abstract

This Transboundary Wetland Management Plan (TWMP) has been developed in line with the Ramsar resolution VIII.14: New Guidelines for Management Planning for Ramsar Sites and Other Wetlands. It supports the establishment of management mechanisms that build upon and strengthen those already in place at local, national and transboundary levels in the Semliki Delta wetland landscape. The TWMP planning process was both participatory and interactive. This comprised screening and scoping, consultative reviews, field surveys, public consultations and workshops which involved key stakeholders from the local national and regional levels including local community members, civil society organisations, district, provincial government of Ituri, and national governments and regional institutions. This TWMP will be implemented over a period of ten years (2020 – 2030).
