Potential reduction of species extinction risk resulting from threat abatement actions

Absolute value (STAR)

0.6

0% of the total biodiversity conservation potential of Cameroon is covered by this project.

23,273.2

10% of Africa's biodiversity conservation potential is from Cameroon.

233,189.9

19.5% of global biodiversity conservation potential is from Africa.

This stacked bar chart represents the relative disaggregation of the selected contribution's total potential opportunity for reducing global species extinction risk through taking actions to abate different threats to species within its boundaries. The percentages refer to the amount of the total opportunity that could potentially be achieved through abating that particular threat.
