Biodiversity hotspots are regions
that harbor especially high numbers
of endemic species and, at the
same time, have been significantly
impacted by human activities. Each
hotspot faces extreme threats and
has already lost at least 70 percent
of its original natural vegetation.
Over 50 percent of the world’s plant
species and 42 percent of all
terrestrial vertebrate species are
endemic to the biodiversity
hotspots, making them urgent
priorities for biodiversity
conservation at a global scale.

As a result of the workshops and this prioritization
process, CEPF investments focus on conserving the
hotspot's 333 globally threatened species, found in
the 160 Key Biodiversity Areas in the Eastern Arc
Mountains and Coastal Forests hotspot.
Conservation outcomes are the full set of
quantitative and justifiable conservation targets in a
hotspot that need to be achieved in order to prevent
biodiversity loss. Having these targets in place

The five sites receiving more focused attention
through Strategic Directions 1 and 2 are: Lower
Tana River Forests, Taita Hills, East Usambaras/
Tanga, Udzungwas, and Jozani Forest. The strategic
directions that focus on these sites will aim to:
1) increase the ability of local populations to benefit
from and contribute to biodiversity conservation and
2) restore and increase connectivity among
fragmented forest patches in the hotspot.
See the ecosystem profile for a full listing of the
strategic directions.
In the Eastern Arc Mountains and Coastal Forests, a
total of 333 species representing five taxonomic
groups (mammals, birds, amphibians, gastropods
and plants) were defined as targets for achieving
species outcomes. Recognizing that most species
are best conserved through the protection of sites in
which they occur, "Key Biodiversity Areas" were
defined as targets for achieving site outcomes. Key
Biodiversity Areas are globally important sites for the
conservation of threatened and endemic species, as
well as species that congregate in very large
numbers at a particular site during their life cycle. The
experts in the Eastern Arc Mountains and Coastal
Forests hotspot identified 160 Key Biodiversity Areas,

outcomes, at the landscape scale, were not
appropriate for this hotspot given the naturally
fragmented, relatively small size of this region.
The Eastern Arc Mountains and Coastal Forests
ecosystem profile includes a commitment and
emphasis on using conservation outcomes - targets
against which theAmboseli
success of investments can be
measured - as the scientific underpinning for
determining CEPF's geographic and thematic focus
for investment. Species and site outcomes for the
hotspot were defined in cooperation with scientists at
CI's Center for Applied Biodiversity Science (CABS).
The political and geographic designations
shown on this map do not imply the

CEPF or any of its partners concerning the

ensures that conservation action focuses on the
species at the greatest risk of extinction and the sites
and landscapes that are most important for their
protection. These targets are defined at three levels,
species, sites and landscapes, representing discrete
units along an ecological continuum, using a datadriven process and standardized criteria. Species
outcomes aim to avoid extinctions, and the primary
set of targets for species outcomes are those species
that are globally threatened (Critically Endangered,
Endangered and Vulnerable) according to the IUCN
Red List.
More than 48 local, national and international
experts representing a variety of scientific,
governmental and nongovernmental
organizations participated in the process. Data on
biodiversity, socioeconomic factors, institutional
context and conservation efforts from the region's
two countries were compiled and synthesized to
develop CEPF's investment strategy for the Eastern
Arc Mountains and Coastal Forests. A regional
workshop was held to enable broad input from
stakeholders and to help reach a consensus on
conservation priorities for the region.
The Critical Ecosystem Partnership Fund
(CEPF) is a joint initiative of Conservation
International, the Global Environment
Facility, the Government of Loliondo
Japan, the
MacArthur Foundation and the World Bank.
A fundamental goal of CEPF is to ensure
civil society is engaged in biodiversity
conservation.
