Levels
Demonstrates knowledge of various aspects of biodiversity management
Understands technical components of biodiversity management such as ecologically sensitive areas (ESAs), habitat and wildlife management and conservation
Identifies human impacts (e.g. recreational pressure, pollution) on habitat and wildlife ecosystems
Demonstrates knowledge of national and international legal provisions such as Biological Diversity Act, 2002 and the Convention on Biological Diversity
Describes various technology based tools that are used for the management of coastal areas such as GIS, statistical software, surveillance technology
Contributes to designing biodiversity management programs
Identify stakeholders that need to be included in various biodiversity plans
Contributes to designing mechanisms for ecological restoration of degraded forest areas, wetlands etc. through systematic planning and implementation, in a cost effective manner
