WWF-SASSI has recently compiled a list of the local species that WWF-SASSI intends to assess this year (2018/2019).
These species have been highlighted as priority species to be updated or included on the WWF-SASSI list and consumer tools. Per the following WWF-SASSI Assessment Protocol, interested and affected parties are hereby notified of WWF-SASSI’s intent to assess these species this year.
Interested parties are invited to submit any documents or other comments relevant to the WWF-SA SASSI assessment of the local species listed below via email at sassi@wwf.org.za on or before 29 November 2018. WWF-SA will provide a further public opportunity to comment on the WWF-SASSI assessments once drafts have been completed.
