Community Outreach activities in Olango Island Wildlife Sanctuary
Community outreach at Olango Island Wildlife Sanctuary encompasses a range of activities designed to involve local residents directly in the conservation and sustainable management of this vital ecosystem.
These initiatives primarily focus on providing alternative and eco-friendly livelihood opportunities, such as community-based ecotourism where locals act as guides and hosts.
They also include robust environmental education programmes to foster awareness and stewardship, alongside efforts to diversify income sources and engage volunteers in conservation actions like mangrove planting and clean-ups, ultimately aiming to harmonize human needs with wildlife protection.
Earth Day activities with kids & livelihood programmes with fisherfolk and women
This initiative engages children through hands-on Earth Day activities like clean-ups and planting, instilling early conservation values.
Concurrently, it supports fisherfolk by promoting sustainable fishing practices and developing alternative livelihoods like eco-tourism, while also empowering women with skills for local enterprises such as craft-making or food processing.
This holistic approach ensures that protecting the local environment and improving community livelihoods become mutually reinforcing goals.
