Establishing of the Regional landscape park Studenykivskyi
Within this project, the Ukrainian Nature Conservation Group conducted a scientific study of the area. Based on the findings, the organization developed documentation for the official designation of these areas as protected, leading to the State of Ukraine's decision to grant them protected status. In collaboration with the local state administration, the Ukrainian Nature Conservation Group designed a concept for the management of this protected site. The local administration established a dedicated entity to oversee the protection and management of the ecosystems. The Ukrainian Nature Conservation Group continues to research the newly established regional landscape park and its surrounding areas, working towards the expansion of the protected site. In its first year of operation, the local administration allocated approximately $60,000 USD for the maintenance of the site. Under state commitments, this support is expected to be provided on a permanent basis.
"Empowering Palk Bay Fishers: Enhancing Socioeconomic and Marine Conservation for Sustainable Fisheries"
Boat and Gear Donation: Providing wooden boats and fishing gear to artisanal fishers, enabling them to sustain traditional fishing methods. Educational Scholarships: Offering scholarships to girls from low-income fishing families to encourage higher education and reduce dependency on fishing as the sole income source. Marine Conservation Leadership (MCL) Fellowship: Training 50 fisher youths in marine conservation, leadership, and technical skills to monitor and protect local marine resources. Internship Program: Facilitating internships for young marine conservation researchers, providing hands-on experience in community-based conservation. Restoration of Traditional Fishing Practices: Reviving traditional boat building through workshops, preserving cultural heritage and skills.
Okapi Conservation Project
Endangered with less than 10,000 individuals, the okapi is thought to survive in only a few forests in the Democratic Republic of Congo, which has made the species its emblem. The natural and cultural heritage of the forest is under threat from a number of factors: habitat fragmentation, mineral and gemstone extraction, ethnic and political conflicts, poaching for ivory and hunting for bushmeat. As a collateral or direct victim, the okapi population is rapidly declining. The Okapi Conservation Project (OCP) was created in 1992 as a result of cooperation between the Congolese government and an American conservation center. With a surface area of 13,700 km², it is located in the heart of the species' main refuge: the Ituri forest. Classified as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, the reserve is inhabited by 30,000 people and the Okapi population is estimated at 4,000 individuals. With a team of armed guards, OCP defends this reserve, its biodiversity and inhabitants, from poaching and conflict, and supports the villagers in development actions, including the promotion of sustainable agricultural practices. The team also monitors the evolution of biodiversity using automatic video traps.
HIrola Conservation Programme
The Hirola Conservation Programme (HCP) is a non-profit organization established (in 2008 and formerly registered in 2014) as a result of global concern about the declining hirola populations. It was established to build the local capacity to spearhead conservation in the volatile region along the Kenya-Somalia border. The hirola antelope (Beatragus hunteri) is arguably the world’s most endangered antelope restricted to areas along the Kenya-Somalia border and outside formally protected areas. HCP’s approach to hirola conservation is multi-faceted and involves field-based conservation, research, environmental education, and community engagement. Their community-based conservation approach has been successful in promoting evidence-based species conservation and bridging the gap between the local communities and conservation agencies in an otherwise historically prohibitive region due to cultural barriers between the Somalis and other ethnic groups. By promoting community-based protected area establishment and management, HCP has been instrumental in reducing poaching incidents, overgrazing by livestock, and human-wildlife conflicts. HCP recognizes that the long-term survival of the species ultimately hinges on the support of local communities. As such HCP works with the local communities to run the conservancies, for instance, their antipoaching unit includes locally recruited and trained rangers who patrol the protected areas each day. HCP’s field activities and research have been instrumental in filling vital ecological knowledge gaps and understanding the underlying factors influencing hirola declines. Our research aims to explore the best management interventions to curtail ongoing declines. HCP also intervenes during emergencies to provide relief to hirola, other wildlife, and local communities during drought, floods, and contagious disease outbreaks.
Managing the habitat of the Endangered Adriatic Marbled Bush-cricket
The national Conservation Action Plan for the Adriatic Marbled Bush-cricket (Zeuneriana marmorata) for Italy was written in 2017 in collaboration between the IUCN SSC Grasshopper Specialist Group, the IUCN SSC Invertebrate Conservation Committee, the Associazione Studi Ornitologici e Ricerche Ecologiche del Friuli Venezia Giulia (ASTORE), the Stazione Biologica della Cona - Riserva Naturale Regionale Foce dell'Isonzo and Rogos Sc. Coop. Implementation started in 2018. In the nature reserve Foce dell'Isonzo, important habitats for the Adriatic Marbled Bush-cricket were excluded from grazing by building a fence. A potentially suitable habitat was identified in 2020 and translocation was carried out in 2021. All Italian populations were monitored since 2018 and four new populations were discovered near Venice and along the Fiume Stella. To improve the implementation of more conservation actions, we need to employ one project coordinator.
