Rapid Assessment of the Proposed Pemba Channel Conservation Area (PECCA)
A Rapid Assessment was conducted on the island of Pemba, which together with Unguja makes up Zanzibar that forms part of the United Republic of Tanzania. The purpose of the assessment was to do an initial scoping of a potential conservation area known provisionally as the Pemba Channel Conservation Area (PECCA) that has been proposed for the west side of Pemba, in terms of its significance from a biodiversity point of view as well as where its potential borders may lie. The study’s main purpose would be to inform the preparation phase of the Marine and Coastal Environment Management Project (MACEMP)1, and it would inter alia recommend how MACEMP could support sustainable natural resource management by addressing threats to biodiversity and root causes as identified under this assignment.
