Kenya's Important Bird Areas: Status and Trends 2010

The 2010 IBA Status and Trends Report provides information on the conditions, pressures and responses at 61 Important Bird Areas (IBAs) in Kenya. Some Important Bird Areas are protected areas, while others are on unprotected land.
This report is a result of excellent NGO-Government-Local community collaborative efforts to save species, conserve sites and habitats, promote ecological sustainability and engage people to take action for biodiversity
conservation at the IBAs. The monitoring results enable the stakeholders to track the conditions, pressures and responses at IBAs. The recommendations contained in this report constitute a suite of corrective measures that should guide future decision making for the conservation of IBAs and key biodiversity areas. The 2010 report is a summary of analyses of information gathered for 37 representative IBAs from 59 basic monitoring forms and other secondary data. The data is extrapolated to cover the 61 IBAs in Kenya.
