In the effort to promote informed policy and decision making and planning at different levels of the government, ARCOS conducts regular surveys in key landscapes in Rwanda. These studies follow a framework termed Integrated Landscape Assessment and Monitoring (ILAM) where biodiversity, ecosystem services and socio-economic aspects are looked at using indicators classified through the OECD's Pressure-State-Response model. This dataset therefore contains data generated through an ILAM study that was conducted by ARCOS in Mukura landscape (Rutsiro District) in the upstream part of Akagera river. The survey was conducted with funding support from the Rwanda’s Fund for Environment and Climate Change (FONERWA)under a project a project entitled "Using Water_Energy_Food Security Nexus to Promote Climate Resilient Decisions and Model Actions in selected Landscapes along Akagera Basin"Taxonomic Coverages
