Summary
There will be strengthened capacity of the wildlife service, law enforcement agencies and judiciary in investigation and prosecution of wildlife crime in Malawi and regionally, and increased community awareness of the negative impact of illegal killing of elephants and rhinos. The improved law enforcement and community awareness will lead to an increase in multiple-charge prosecution and conviction rates, reducing elephant and rhino poaching, and thus facilitating sustainable tourism and contributing to poverty reduction.
The UK remains committed to playing a significant role in the world, in our national interest, in the interests of the poorest, and to ensure a liveable planet.
