NASSAU, BAHAMAS – Experts and volunteers from a myriad of Bahamian environmental non-governmental organizations are coming together over the next two days for a conservation conclave hosted by the University of The Bahamas, the Disney Conservation Fund, GEF small grants programme.

Acting President of the University of the Bahamas is Janyne Hodder.

Dialogue coming out of the conclave could inform a proposed white paper, outlining the development of our policies on conservation.

Environment Minister Vaughn Miller highlighted five areas to strategize, namely marine protected areas, sustainable tourism practices, climate resilience programs, community engagement and education, and biodiversity conservation initiatives like reforestation projects.

Says while coming up with regulation is one thing, the issue comes afterwards.
