Cabo Verde
Second National Environmental Action Plan
Executive
Plan
Passed in 2004
The document identifies as priority environmental problems:
i) the limited availability of water suitable for home consumption and economic
development activities;
ii) the loss of marine and terrestrial biodiversity;
iii) the poorly developed basic sanitation infrastructure that considerably affects
public health and tourist development.
PANA II incorporates the development orientations adopted at International Meeting on Sustainable Development held in Johannesburg in 2002.
By means of a transversal, participatory and decentralised process, involving public and private sectors, municipalities, Non-Governmental Organisations and other civil society groups, four priority interventions were identified:
i) Sustainable management of water resources:
ii) Basic sanitation,
iii) Biodiversity and
iv) Spatial planning.
