This study examined how biosphere reserves in Africa (AfriMAB) can better address climate change. It analyzed their institutional structures to identify strengths and weaknesses in achieving the CBD's 30x30 target for conservation. The research suggests improvements for biosphere reserve management, including increased UN support, project frequency, and budget allocation. It highlights the need for climate impact studies and improved communication between governments, reserves, and communities. This research fills a knowledge gap and paves the way for similar studies across other biosphere reserve networks.
