Proposals Oceania from February, 2013
Fiji: Tukuni Yadua (Talking about Yadua)
Enable the indigenous community of Denimanu to share their stories which span 40 years of effort to protect Fiji's endangered Crested Iguanas. Share in the challenges, the successes, joys & their resilience in mitigating climate change impacts on their village and livelihoods. Use digital videos & photographs to project these stories. In the process conduct historical mapping of their resources to help mitigate future environmental issues.
Palau: Youth-In-Conservation Social Network
This project aims to build global youth awareness of conservation in Palau, a small island nation in the Pacific. Palau Conservation Society will establish a youth-in-conservation online social network by holding a workshop, facilitated by a team of youth, to develop and administer a social network site to link Palau youth with other youth around the world. The overarching goal is to encourage them to become lifelong stewards of conservation.
