Support a learning exchange by representatives of community groups to experience the successful community turtle monitoring program by the Vanua-Tai Resource Monitors Network. This project will allow the representatives from two Fijian communities to learn from the Vanua-Tai’s long experience in turtle monitoring. The two groups will share experiences and approaches, as well as resolve questions on sustainable use of marine resources.

Strategic Direction: 3 Build awareness and participation of local leaders and community members in the implementation of protection and recovery plans for threatened species
