These two slideshows provide an overview of the beauty and
splendour lying within two projects.
The Benguela Current Large Marine
Ecosystem and the Agulhas Biodiversity Initiative.
- The BCLME Programme is designed
to improve the structures and capacities of Namibia, Angola and South
Africa to deal with the environmental problems that occur across
the national boundaries, in order that the Benguela Current Large
Marine Ecosystem may be managed as a whole.

- Agulhas Biodiversity Initiative: One of
the main components of ABI focuses on development and implementation
of models for sustainable harvesting of wild fynbos flowers, using
the magnificent Flower Valley Farm as a pilot area
for implementation. The objective is to convince landowners, private
businesses and local communities that biodiversity, if managed and
harvested sustainably, will provide significantly better economic benefits
in the long-run, compared with alternative agricultural land-uses.Flower
Valley is a botanical treasure at the
heart of the Cape Floral Kingdom, the world's smallest but most
diverse floral kingdom. The Flower Valley Conservation Trust was
set up in April 1999 to influence bio-diversity conservation and
community empowerment in the Cape Floral Kingdom, by promoting ways
in which wild fynbos resources can be sustainably utilised.
