The BLF aims to restore landscapes and deliver their long-lasting protection through sustainable management practices, improving the quality of ecosystems and safeguarding biodiversity,\u201d Siziba explained.<\/p>\n<p>She further explained that in the KAZA region, the BLF will work to create harmony between people and nature by resolving land-use conflicts and re-establishing wildlife corridors to foster human-wildlife coexistence.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe BLF will use evidence and learning generated by previous Defra-funded work, which scoped the potential support needed in the region, particularly concerning efforts to combat wildlife crime. It also seeks to cement connectivity gains by creating climate-resilient food systems and implementing agroecology initiatives, such as capacity building of smallholder farmers, conducting exchange visits between farmers, supporting farmers with input support and engagement with agro-dealers, and linking farmers to markets,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About Namibia Follow Africa-Press<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Namibia.
