The African Nature-Based Tourism Platform worked with partners in Botswana, Kenya, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Rwanda, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe to conduct surveys assessing the impact of COVID-19 on communities and small to medium enterprises (SMEs) within the nature-based tourism sector. To date, the Platform has conducted 687 surveys across its 11 target countries.
Leveraging this survey data, the Platform has collaborated with partners to develop community-led and designed grant proposals. This collaborative approach has resulted in the mobilization of significant funding going directly to community-based organizations.

This paper explores how to restore environmental water flows in the Rio Grande‚ÄìRio Bravo basin, a river system that spans 1900 miles from Colorado to Texas, and has been heavily altered over the past century, primarily for agricultural irrigation. Despite these changes, the river still supports critical ecosystems and endangered species. The authors, including WWF's Enrique Prunes, developed the first full-basin hydrologic model for the region to assess how much water is needed to restore ecological flows and how those needs could be met. They found that by reducing irrigation through crop shifting and fallowing‚ – without reducing farmers‚' net income‚ – it is possible to restore key low-flow conditions in parts of the river, such as near Albuquerque, New Mexico. This approach offers a promising path to balance agricultural needs with ecological restoration in a water-scarce region.

This TNRC guide suggests six steps for bringing political economy analysis (PEA) findings into a theory of change (ToC) for a project or program. It aims to provide a practical means for conservationists to navigate political economy (PE) in contexts where they work. While a ToC explains the logic of a project, a PEA, which looks at the influence of power, helps get to the heart of what needs to change for a project to work. But practitioners often find it challenging to use PEA in practice.
