Knowledge, Attitudes and Practices Survey underway in Tobago
What does the average
person know about forests and protected areas?
What value if any is attached to them?
Do people play a part in protecting and managing these natural resources? In an effort to investigate the answers to
these and other questions that are relevant to the six pilot protected areas, a
“Knowledge, Attitudes and Practices” survey was initiated in Tobago at the end
of July 2016.
This activity was kicked off by a training session held with staff and
interns of the Tobago House of Assembly (THA) Department of
Natural Resources and Environment (DNRE) and the Fisheries Division.
The survey
will capture views of people living in the general area of the two pilot
protected areas in Tobago and will advise a communication strategy for the project.
