Examining gender issues in protected area management
Representatives of various stakeholder organisations that are engaged in the "Improving Forest and Protected Area Management in Trinidad and Tobago" project recently participated in a one-day workshop which explored gender issues in protected area management.
The participants learned how to conduct a gender analysis in their organisations' environmental projects and in the protected areas to which they are connected through project Subcommittees.
A call-back session planned for early 2018 will examine how their new learning has assisted in review and in the application of a 'gender lens' to their work.

Charloteville Escapade
After a long winding drive, and a few
sleepy head nods later, we finally arrived at Charlotteville around 1440 hours.
The sun was out and there were a few
persons hanging around on the shore of the bay, near the village center.
The team that participated in the Charlotteville walkabout
The team made its way to the conference room
of the Environmental Research Institute Charlotteville, where we briefly went
over the evening’s proceedings and how we should approach the villagers on the
walkabout sensitization session.
