WHERE Anguilla
Summary
Anguilla’s biodiversity has declined due to invasive aliens and other pressures, and the changing climate could be the final straw. Focusing on critically threatened plants and reptiles and informed by stateof-the-art modelling, stakeholders will devise and launch the first species conservation plans aimed at achieving resistance to climate change. This game-changing project will then implement strategic actions, including combatting invasive aliens and reintroducing endemics to former ranges, so that even by the project end, priority species are substantially more resilient.
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.
