Summary
Madagascar’s protected area (PA) network was established to conserve the island’s unique and threatened biodiversity and fragile ecosystems. However, in many cases, the organisations and their staff responsible for effective PA management lack sufficient training. This project aims to: (i) strengthen the capacity of PA management professionals through training, practical exchange visits and long-term professional development, (ii) establish a national network of PA professionals, and (iii) improve access to PA management information for PA staff through online resources.
