[WIOSAP] Improvement of Ecosystem Health and Water Quality by Implementing A Source to Sea Based Approach to Tackle Marine Litter in Five Priority River Systems in Durban, KwazuluNatal, South Africa Technical Report

The Nairobi Convention Secretariat (NCS) undertook a pre-project visit from 6-7 February 2020 to meet with project proponents, partners, and communities to gain first-hand information about the problem that the project intends to address, mechanisms and approaches to be used, how the identified issues are associated with the livelihoods of beneficiaries, and what benefits the project will bring them. The NCS conducted a “due diligence” to ensure proponents have and will consider community sensitivities, potential stumbling blocks, and leadership/ownership of the project. This serves as a “baseline” of the situation at the start of the project to which comparison can be made at the project’s conclusion. In addition, visuals/interviews (of both the site and some partners), were captured for storytelling and communications purposes (Published in February 2020).
