A ¨B-Line¨ to Re-wilding: Anguilla's Pollinators Project

WHERE Anguilla
Summary
This project takes a “joined up” approach to restore and conserve Anguilla’s pollinators and degraded habitats. It joins-up habitats by creating rewilded pollinator pathways (B-lines) and joins-up people through collaborative, community-based actions. An assessment of Anguilla’s B-Line pollinators (bees, butterflies, birds, bats) informs a collaboratively-developed National Pollinators Strategy. Through the creation of sustainable alternative livelihood opportunities (beekeeping), and an increase in public awareness, this project fosters support for community-based conservation and increased species and habitat resiliency while addressing biodiversity loss.
Darwin Initiative Round 32 is now open for applications! A new round of funding to support ambitious projects delivering impact for biodiversity and communities.
