Train the community near Lake Towuti in Indonesia to develop a surveillance system to protect water quality of the lake. Upstream sedimentation and household sewage has degraded the water quality, threatening the population of endemic freshwater fauna. The project will also pilot sustainable fisheries at the community level.

Strategic Direction: 3 Support sustainable natural resource management by communities in priority sites and corridors
