Thematic Areas and Activities

Guided by the Integrated Management Objectives (IMOs) outlined in the Strategic Action Programme (SAP), the SAP will establish a long-term planning framework, titled the Basin Development and Management Framework (BDMF), which will include the development of a long-term vision and agreement on the accepted development space for the Cubango-Okavango basin. The BDMF will provide flexible management approaches informed by scientific and economic analysis and will respond to changing socio-economic and environmental conditions in the basin over time. The BDMF is complemented by four Thematic Areas that have been identified through the national and basin-wide consultation processes.
