چکیده
Africa has experienced unprecedented growth across a range of development indices for decades. However, this is often at the expense Africa’s biodiversity and ecosystems, jeopardizing livelihoods millions people depending on goods services provided by nature, with broader consequences achieving United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Encouragingly, can still take more sustainable path. Here, we synthesize key learnings from African Ecological Futures project. We report results participatory scenario planning process around four collectively-owned scenarios narratives evolution ecological resource base over next 50 years. These lens to review pressures natural environment, through drivers, pressures, state, impacts, responses (DPSIR) framework. Based outcomes each these steps, discuss opportunities reorient trajectories towards fall under broad categories “effective governance”, “strategic capabilities”, “investment safeguards frameworks”, “new partnership models”. Underpinning all are “data, management information, decision support frameworks”. This work help inform collaborative action set actors an interest in ensuring future Africa.
