What a treat last night to hear a replay on ABC Radio of an in-depth conversation with one of #Fiji's pre-eminent conservationists, Nunia Moko-Thomas, Director of @NatureFiji. Listen here: The whistling frogs of Fiji's forests https://t.co/2sgm7WcHVh
We're delighted to share this collaborative @AusMammals paper on our survey of cetaceans along the coast of southern New Britain. The aims of our @CommunityCEPF and @NatGeo work were to share knowledge and training and gather baseline data.

Great #ocean news from @thewcs: Today, Papua New Guinea has announced over 16,000 km2 of new marine protected areas in New Ireland Province, more than tripling ocean protections across the country
The massive, community-led process took nearly seven years and involved over 9,000 people from more than 100 Indigenous communities who all helped design the new ocean protections
The two new nearshore MPAs are a major win for Papua New Guinea, Indigenous Peoples, and critically endangered sharks, rays, and turtles – a model of community and government partnership on the road to achieve the global “30x30” target https://t.co/oUuY9zrPMB
Papua New Guinea has just declared 2 new marine protected areas 👏
This movement to protect 16,885 km2 of coastal seas began by community request, and ended with community consensus – more than tripling ocean protections in the country overnight.

More than 9,000 Indigenous people from 100+ communities had a voice in the 6+ year process.
These new MPAs are a model for a community-led #30x30 – a roadmap from #PapuaNewGuinea for how to support Indigenous Peoples in their ongoing efforts to manage their lands and seas 🌊
Extremely proud of our @wcs_png team for their long-term dedication to working with the local-level governments of Lovongai & Murat in New Ireland Province, #PNG, to get these #MPAs established - with the commitment & consensus of over 9,000 community members! Well done team!
In Solomon Islands, a local #Indigenous community’s knowledge of #lunarspawning cycles—supported by WCS technology—is bolstering #fish populations in the world’s largest saltwater lagoon.
