Dugongs and Seagrass

3 months ago

Our very own Martika Tahi was one of only 10 "hotspot heroes" from around the world recognised in this 20 year anniversary event from Critical Ecosystem Partnership Fund. She was chosen as the hero from the CEPF East Melanesian Islands hotspot which includes Vanautu. CEPF have funded our bat and some of our dugongs projects as well as giving us our very first grant to help get us started back in 2015. We are grateful for the support from them for our conservation work. Watch what Martika has to say and see if you can spot any other Ni-Vanautu conservationist! www.youtube.com/watch?v=9I5nM5FHnMs ... See MoreSee Less
