Synopsis (short abstract) The Sustainable Wildlife Management (SWM) Programme is the first international initiative to tackle the wild meat challenge by addressing both wildlife conservation and food security. This African, Caribbean and Pacific Group of States (ACP) initiative is funded by the European Union through the 11th European Development Fund (EUR 45 Million). The SWM Programme mobilizes an international group of partner organizations with strong expertise and experience in wildlife conservation, food security and policy development. It is implemented through a consortium partnership, which includes the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the Centre for International Forestry Research (CIFOR), Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) and the French Agricultural Research Centre for International Development (CIRAD). The SWM Programme is developing innovative, collaborative and scalable new models, which conserve wildlife and protect ecosystems, whilst at the same time improving the living conditions and food security of the people who depend on these resources. Eight models are being developed in thirteen pilot countries, of which twelve are ACP countries. In each country, the SWM partners are working closely with national authorities and other local institutions. It is a collaborative effort that seeks to achieve sustainable levels of hunting. The lay-out of the newsletter is in line with the SWM Visual Handbook. This quarterly SWM newsletter will be informing our donors and partners about the main highlights and results achieved in the countries. Interview with donors, partners, local staff, facts and figures, event and conferences will also be presented. In particular, the following sections of this first issue will be about: - Welcome: a word from the SWM Programme Coordinator (Hubert Boulet) - Special Focus: Communities Rights-Based Approach and FPIC Process - Country Story (Guyana): Development of sustainable community-led-wildlife and fisheries management initiatives and the strong relationship developed with local communities -Events Corner: Forests at the heart of Sustainable Development Conference and Implementation workshop -Newsrooms: Links to press releases and articles concerning the SWM Programme -SWM Talks: Interview with the Assistant Secretary General of ACP, Mr. Viwanou Gnassounou
