Description of Impact(s) (English Only) The Malawi Government, through the Environmental Affairs Department of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Climate Change, is currently assessing the status and trends of biodiversity loss in Malawi in collaboration with the Lilongwe University of Agriculture and Natural Resources, which coordinates the engagement of authors/experts. This comprehensive evaluation is conducted with the technical support of the UN Environment Programme World Conservation Monitoring Centre through the National Ecosystem Assessment Initiative, under the umbrella of the Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services Network (BES-Net). This endeavour was supported by the triangular dialogue tool known as Trialogue, which provided a platform for an in-depth knowledge exchange and contributions to the assessment from participants with diverse knowledge sets and worldviews, including policymakers, scientists and Indigenous Peoples and local communities.
