ABCG brings together health, development and conservation practitioners working in Africa on projects and policies looking to improve biodiversity conservation and human health. By linking freshwater conservation and WASH in field sites in South Africa and Uganda, ABCG members hope to see reduced watershed degradation and pollution, and improved health of freshwater ecosystems.

Jimmiel Mandima from African Wildlife Foundation provided an overview of the activities to date and tools produced to design, implement and monitor integrated programs. Janet Edmond from Conservation International described current and planned activities, including the promotion of a “community of practice” among practitioners in Africa to share and learn from each other’s experiences.
