National Biodiversity Strategies and Action Plans (NBSAPs)

National Biodiversity Strategies and Action Plans (NBSAPs) are comprehensive frameworks that countries create to protect and manage their natural biodiversity. These plans outline the unique species and ecosystems in a country, assess threats to their survival, and set strategic goals for conservation. NBSAPs are developed in line with international agreements, like the Convention on Biological Diversity, and involve various stakeholders, including governments, communities, and scientists. By implementing these plans, nations aim to promote sustainability, protect wildlife, and ensure ecosystem health for future generations while balancing economic and social needs.
