Summary
This project takes a “joined up” approach to restore and conserve Anguilla’s pollinators and degraded habitats. It joins-up habitats by creating rewilded pollinator pathways (B-lines) and joins-up people through collaborative, community-based actions. An assessment of Anguilla’s B-Line pollinators (bees, butterflies, birds, bats) informs a collaboratively-developed National Pollinators Strategy. Through the creation of sustainable alternative livelihood opportunities (beekeeping), and an increase in public awareness, this project fosters support for community-based conservation and increased species and habitat resiliency while addressing biodiversity loss.
