It also teaches appropriate techniques to remove alien or foreign plants that should not be growing within the fynbos biome. Accurate identification of fynbos plant species as well as alien vegetation species, and understanding the reasons for clearing these plants from important areas is important to the success of the programme... The programme includes certificates for accredited training in Chainsaw Operation, Brushcutter Operation and First Aid, valuable and transferable skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>How long is the training programme?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The initial Alien Vegetation Management training course takes 5- 10 days depending on the prior knowledge, education and skills of the group. The course includes both theory and practical sessions in the field, face to face with fynbos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Who do you train?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This training programme has been specifically developed to offer training opportunities for better employment to vulnerable or unemployed women from Gansbaai, Pearly Beach and Stanford, the communities who live with the Cape Floral Kingdom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thilivali communicates with three main Alien Vegetation contractors in the area. These contractors manage and recruit their own team members from within their communities which ensures a good and lasting relationship with the community.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Three main contractors identify and assemble teams to be sent to the Grootbos Foundation for training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/grootbosfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/VVwkia6A-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14341\" width=\"701\" height=\"467\" srcset=\"https:\/\/grootbosfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/VVwkia6A-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/grootbosfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/VVwkia6A-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/grootbosfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/VVwkia6A-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/grootbosfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/VVwkia6A-580x387.jpeg 580w, https:\/\/grootbosfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/VVwkia6A-860x573.jpeg 860w, https:\/\/grootbosfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/VVwkia6A-1160x773.jpeg 1160w, https:\/\/grootbosfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/VVwkia6A-1440x960.jpeg 1440w, https:\/\/grootbosfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/VVwkia6A-610x407.jpeg 610w, https:\/\/grootbosfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/VVwkia6A-440x293.jpeg 440w, https:\/\/grootbosfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/VVwkia6A.jpeg 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 701px) 100vw, 701px\" \/><figcaption>This training programme has been specifically developed to offer training opportunities for better employment to <br>vulnerable or unemployed women in our local areas -

Conservation of water is a priority in water-scarce regions of South Africa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The fynbos biome is one of the most diverse in terms of plant species.
