"My Caroni" session focuses on the Scarlet Ibis and Enforcement matters

The second session in the "My Caroni" information/research sharing series took place on Friday 28th September 2018. An initiative of the Caroni Swamp Pilot Protected Area Subcommittee (Improving Forest and Protected Area Management in Trinidad and Tobago project), these sessions assist managers in understanding the complexity of issues which face the protected area, and offer opportunities to discuss, brainstorm ideas and network to find practical solutions and/or approaches to improved management.  
At the second session which was hosted at the Head Office of the Environmental Management Authority, attendees gained insight on the process followed for designation of the most recent Environmentally Sensitive Species, the Scarlet Ibis.  
Additionally, the current challenges facing managers for enforcement within the Caroni Swamp (and other protected areas) and the novel ways in which some of these are being addressed, were shared.  
Learn more about the information shared and the discussions which ensued at this link.  The next session of the series will be held in late October.
