The global development objective (GEO) was to conserve a significant representation of five of the country's seven terrestrial biomes (63% of the Addo larger area), including globally important biodiversity (236,000 ha) and 120,000 ha of one of the country three marine provinces into a single National Park. The project development objective (PDO) was to establish a megabiodiversity conservation area around the existing Addo Elephant National Park (AENP) to avert further ecosystem degradation and to contribute to poverty reduction by creating direct employment in nature conservation and by catalyzing the development of eco-tourism.
