Conservation in Angola information


Landscape in Bicuari National Park

Conservation in Angola is centered around the protection of the country's biodiversity and natural heritage. While Angola contains a remarkably diverse array of ecosystems and species, conservation has not been a priority for most of its history. Three decades of intense conflict during the Angolan Civil War had a catastrophic effect on the nation's environment, but since the end of the war in 2002, both the Angolan government and non-state actors have gradually established programs to protect the ecological well-being of the country.[1] However, major structural issues and lack of political will have so far kept intervention limited, and many habitats and species remain deeply threatened.[2]
