Protected Area Stakeholders learn value of Monitoring and Evaluation


Over the three day period February 6th – 8th 2017, a team of 14 stakeholders participating in the “Improving Forest and Protected Area Management in Trinidad and Tobago” project took part in a workshop entitled “An Introduction to Monitoring and Evaluation”.  The workshop was deemed to be a very enlightening experience by participants.
