Summary
This project will reduce threats to biodiversity and multi-dimensional poverty through the facilitation of community-based habitat restoration including removal of select damaging invasive species (plant and animal); planting with native tree species (including particularly rare or locally endemic species); expansion of an invasive species surveillance network; building local capacity to establish a biosecurity net; mitigation of a significant socio-economic impact caused by invasive Asian toads; and promotion of sustainable alternative livelihood strategies at four high biodiversity sites in eastern Madagascar.
