    This report assesses the socio-economic roles and economic values associated with Egypt’s mangroves. Due to the nature of the study, it has only been possible to undertake a “rapid appraisal” of the socio-economic roles and economic value of Egypt’s mangroves. As such, the socio-economic assessment is only a partial appraisal of key aspects. Furthermore, the economic values determined are not highly accurate; rather they provide an indication of the relative order of possible value. Furthe r studies will be required to validate and enhance the accuracy, robustness and completeness of the socio-economic issues and economic values. Despite this, the study provides a valuable first step in the continuous process of fully understanding and evaluating the importance of Egypt’s mangroves.

    This publication provides guidance on the socioeconomic evaluation of pollinator-friendly practices, as part of the GEF supported Project “Conservation and Management of Pollinators for Sustainable Agriculture, through an Ecosystem Approach” implemented in seven countries - Brazil, Ghana, India, Kenya, Nepal, Pakistan, and South Africa. The project is coordinated by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) with implementation support from the United Nations Env ironment Programme (UNEP). The field-testing and adaptation of the guidance described in this handbook, and the production of the book, was made possible through the support of the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD), Rome, Italy. We would like to thank the partners in the GEF/UNEP/FAO project for their feedback on earlier drafts of this guidance. We are particularly grateful to the country teams in Ghana, India, Kenya and Nepal for their important role in enabling m eetings with farmers’ groups. We would like to thank also the many farmers, too numerous to name individually, in different villages for offering their hospitality and giving their time to talk to us about their practices and respond to our questions.
