Equipping people with skills to be able to manage their own resources is crucial in the face of climate change and population growth. I am really excited to be part of this project that aims to do exactly that. I have worked on a range of projects focusing on monitoring marine protected areas, witnessing the recovery of habitat as well as fish and invertebrate abundance. Having worked with remote communities in the more Northern islands of Vanuatu and Eastern Solomon Islands I have listened to stories of peoples’ relationship with the ocean and their reef and worked with them to build monitoring programs appropriate for their needs.
