The 20-year conservation targets that have been identified thus far for the Succulent Karoo are:
75 percent of the conservation targets set in the SKEP process for 135 vegetation types will be protected and conserved.Key climatic gradients and riverine corridors are taken into consideration in the creation or expansion of any protected areas.
Globally threatened and endangered species listed in the Red Data sources will be under additional protection. Sites in the Succulent Karoo hotspot that house unique, endemic and globally threatened species will be identified and protected.
After a more fine-scaled analysis, this will be formalised as conservation out-comes for the Succulent Karoo hot-spot.
