The Bobole Botanical Reserve (RBB) was set up on February 1945, specifically to protect Raphia australis, a near-endemic species in Mozambique, and its natural ecosystem. It is located in Marracuene district, in Maputo province. The project with support of the Bio card, implemented by the Mozambican Agricultural Research Institute through the Forest Research Center in partnership with KOSMOZ and the National Research Fund (FNI), began in August 2020 and is scheduled to end in July 2023. Its goal is to conserve and repopulate the area with Raphia australis in association with other local, native species and food crops based on adopting integrated agro-forestry systems and income generating alternatives.

The Environmental Protection Area of the First and Second Islands (APAIPS) is one of the largest marine areas in Africa, managed by the National Administration of Conservation Areas (ANAC). Located in northern Mozambique, in the provinces of Nampula and Zambézia, this area covers an area of approximately 1,040,926 hectares and a land strip of 205 km. The archipelago of the First and Second Islands forms a region of significant marine influence where an extensive “reef chain” develops at depths that in certain locations emerge at the surface, with high richness in biological diversity

With funding from the Bio Card funds, 6 satellite markers were acquired to monitor the movements of marine green turtles, in real time, aiming to enhance knowledge about their migration routes after the nesting period. This project is being implemented by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) Mozambique, from April 2022 to December 2023. Additionally, the program includes communication and awareness-raising activities for the conservation of sea turtles, providing valuable information about the migration routes of the tagged turtles.

Situated in the heart of Maputo, the University Botanical Garden, spanning 5 hectares, is a sanctuary for Mozambican flora, relatively unknown to many. This project, supported by the Bio Card and led by the Faculty of Sciences at UEM, focuses on the protection of endangered species, with special attention to plants such as Warburgia salutaris, Encephalartos lebomboensis, and Encephalartos umbeluziensis, all listed in the Mozambique Red List. Over the course of two years, this project will not only promote the conservation of these species but also empower students and professionals in habitat restoration techniques and the cultivation of native plants.

This park, located in the Gaza Province and spanning 7,250 km², is a diverse ecosystem designated as a National Park in 1973, managed by the National Administration of Conservation Areas (ANAC). With funding from the Bio Card and administration by the Museum of Natural History, the current project focuses on studying the role of Banhine National Park (PNB) as an internationally important wetland and as a migratory route for Eurasian birds. The project will last for two years and aims to highlight the ecological importance of the park, contributing to global conservation efforts.
