Project Data
The objective is to develop and manage a comprehensive national biodiversity database using BRAHMS, through training of NHBG technical staff and its local partners; including Environmental Affairs Department (EAD) which is a central user of biodiversity information, particularly at policy level. The database will initially be constructed using datasets comprising plants and animal biodiversity species, Threatened plants, Invasive Alien Species (IAS) and Pollinator species.
