RESCCUE Project in Vanuatu - Theme 4: Protect Marine Resources

RESCCUE helped develop a marine monitoring toolkit for the local communities in North Efate (Vanuatu) to use to manage their marine resources. The toolkit brings traditional knowledge, which is plentiful, and science together in a tool that is both locally relevant and useful for Vanuatu Fisheries Department in terms of data collection.
