• Support for local forestry administration

Surveillance operations will only be effective if the offender can be fined within a few days of the offence being detected. If this is not the case, there is a strong risk that offenders will no longer fear fines and will continue to damage forest areas. Three elements should help ensure the forestry administration's responsiveness:

• The positioning of forestry administration representatives as close as possible to the communes in which they operate.
• The provision of high-performance equipment: motorcycles, computer hardware, etc.
• Payment of forestry agents' expenses.

• Integration into the site management and co-management system

Ultimately, depending on the level of ownership and available resources, the project could encourage the integration of surveillance teams within partner communes. The positioning of the forestry brigades within the rural communes could be promoted as a contribution by local communities to site conservation. These collaboration arrangements will need to be defined between the promoter (site manager), the local grassroots communities, the partner communes and the forestry administration.

The project will rely primarily on local resources. Given the size of Beampingaratsy and the various levels of pressure, it appears that around 30 trained staff will be needed to ensure surveillance and, subsequently, ecological monitoring.

In order to improve the image of the ecoguard profession, the TALAKY project aims to develop a pool of local ecoguards familiar with the objectives, procedures and tools of forest and environmental monitoring. Drawn from local communities or from the ranks of pre-existing Polisin'ala

This pool receives training on the organizational aspects of patrols: frequency, planning, composition; aasite reporting through application of geoODK and the risks of corruption or collusion inherent in the nature of their mission.

To improve surveillance:

• Disconnect the activities of local ecoguards from their home communities
• Diversify the profiles and build the capacities of local ecoguards
• Strengthen links between local ecoguards and the forestry authority.
• Implementation of a patrol monitoring tool (geoodk)

Both block 1 and 2 are focused on disseminating to the world and providing Virtual Reality / Recorded Reality video material evidence of the relevance of reinforcing bottom-up protection schemes that increase local governance for protection from fishing communities. Being in phase 2 of inclusion in Colombia's National Natural Parks, the nomination as a Marine Natural Heritage would ensure that the international protection framework with Mission Blue is quadrupled and conservation of these two resilient reefs Varadero and Capurgana-Cabo Tiburon located in the North and South ends that connect the biodiversity of healthy coral reefs to the natural parks in between (sanctuary of Fauna and Flora Playona with National Natural Park Corales del Rosario and San Bernardo) is achieved.

About 70% of Tanzanian land falls under village land owned and managed by local communities. Due to this, the Tanzanian Land Act allows for ownership and management of land by communities through local governing bodies. To secure Land Rights for these communities therefore means that a village must have a Village Land Certificate which defines the official boundaries of each village and to get that, conflict resolution must be carried out for neighbouring villages to amicably agree on the boundaries of their respective villages. After that, Communities are supported to undertake a village Land Use Plan guided by the National Land Use Planning guidelines. Having done that, communities are then supported to secure through a communal certificate of Customary Right of Occupancy (CCRO) a communal title to their land in which they continue to practice their traditional practices that are friendly and help conserve the environment. These communal CCROs are connected to each other to support mobility of livestock and wildlife from one area to another which helps these animals access crucial shared resources such as water points and salt licks

Asset balance sheets log the stocks of assets and their values in the national accounts. Whereas flows of economic production--goods and services--have been used as primary indicators of the "health" of an economy, these measures do not take into account depreciation or degradation of the asset base form which these flows stem. Changes in the asset balance sheet would reflect, for example, the reduction in value of depleted fisheries stocks. 

Create and strengthen the capacities of the intended users of the Atlas, through workshops and training, in order to maximize the results obtained from the visualization and interpretation of the information provided by the Atlas.

To have the necessary financial resources available to obtain the data and human resources required for each of the phases of the project by identifying a reliable and continuous source of funding.

Sources of funding may include: Non-governmental organizations and academia, international financing funds, non-profit foundations, national institutional budgets, among others.

The head of the area seeks to support the sustainability of the productive activities of the populations through the incorporation of actors such as private companies that pay fair prices for the products, as is the case with cocoa and coffee.

Plastic credit allows a company to neutralize its plastic production and concurrently connects its brands and products with the social and environmental impact embedded within the process of producing the credits. Plastic credits are based on the weight of the plastic that a company produces. The money spent on the plastic credits will then go toward environmental projects that will eliminate an equal amount of orphan plastics as a company produces. If a company purchases plastic credits equal to the amount of plastic that they produce, then they are considered plastic neutral. Ideally, we would be working toward eliminating orphan plastics entirely, while plastic credits only serve to assist in managing the disposal of orphan plastics. However, they are a positive short-term remedy while we, as a world community, determine a more sustainable solution.

Our activities are audited by a 3rd Party Control Body as part of the Ocean Bound Plastic Neutrality Standard. Credibility is key. Corporations participating in the TONTOTON plastic neutralizing program receive certificates to verify the quantity of waste collected, transported, received, and converted into AFRM, allowing quantifiable and reliable reporting to all stakeholders of your business. Neutralization Certificates are kept in a Public Registry to ensure no double counting.
