Rainwater harvesting for enhanced biodiversity management. Tangeni Community- Based Runoff Pond System, a case study

The biodiversity of the original coastal forest belt is preserved in a number of protected areas. Witu Forest Reserve in the south is drastically decreasing in size owing to immigrants illegally settling along its buffer zones and gradually encroaching into the forests for livelihood support that include timber, traditional medicine fuel wood and charcoal burning. The forests in and around Boni and Dondori National reserves has also been shrinking in size due human settlements who engage in slash and burn agriculture.
