SUSTAIN
SUSTAIN is a 10-year initiative working to secure a transition to sustainable food systems and healthy productive landscapes in Tanzania and Mozambique. The initiative will particularly focus on scaling up sustainable agriculture and ensuring healthy ecosystems for resilient livelihoods and inclusive growth. The Initiative will aim to enhance sustainable and inclusive governance and management of natural resources, implement integrated landscape management and innovative nature-based solutions to generate inclusive and sustainable business and livelihood opportunities; and catalyse innovative and inclusive investments in healthy ecosystems, sustainable agribusinesses and value chains. SUSTAIN has got two intertwined components: Productive Landscapes for Inclusive Growth (SUSTAIN Pro) and Ecosystem stewardship to balance sustainability and growth (SUSTAIN Eco). The initiative will be implemented in Kilombero, Ihemi (Iringa) and Sumbawanga - Katavi Clusters of the Southern Agricultural Growth Corridor of Tanzania (SAGCOT).
Potential conservation benefits in saving biodiversity
Potential reduction of species extinction risk resulting from threat abatement actions
Absolute value (STAR)
7.3% of the total biodiversity conservation potential of United Republic of Tanzania is covered by this project.
10.8% of Africa's biodiversity conservation potential is from United Republic of Tanzania.
19.5% of global biodiversity conservation potential is from Africa.
The chart below represents the relative disaggregation of the selected contribution's total potential opportunity for reducing global species extinction risk through taking actions to abate different threats to species within its boundaries. The percentages refer to the amount of the total opportunity that could potentially be achieved through abating that particular threat.
