Richtersveld Cultural and Botanical Landscape World Heritage Site Nomination 145 Community Based Natural Resource Management (CBNRM) Programme. These two structures will form the base from which monitoring will be conducted and recorded. Monitoring activities will be carried out in accordance with the Monitoring Plan of the Conservancy which will be completed by mid-2006, after which it will be endorsed by the Management Committee and made as an annex to the Management Plan. The Management Committee and the Richtersveld CBNRM Programme will receive technical support from several support and research organisations including International Knowledge Management and the South African National Biodiversity Institute (SANBI) with leading authorities on botanical research. Additionally, for the next five years the Global Environment Facility Project in the Richtersveld will be conducting biological asset mapping and inventory in the Core Area and Buffer Zones. All activities will pay special attention to capacity building of local human resources to ensure sustainable monitoring programmes into the future. 6.c.
