Summary
Madagascar’s protected area (PA) network was established to conserve the island’s unique and threatened biodiversity and fragile ecosystems. However, in many cases, the organisations and their staff responsible for effective PA management lack sufficient training. This project aims to: (i) strengthen the capacity of PA management professionals through training, practical exchange visits and long-term professional development, (ii) establish a national network of PA professionals, and (iii) improve access to PA management information for PA staff through online resources.
Darwin Initiative Round 32 is now open for applications! A new round of funding to support ambitious projects delivering impact for biodiversity and communities.
From scaling successful approaches to strengthening locally led conservation, explore key lessons shared by projects working on the front line of biodiversity action.
