Bahamas Maps Path to Better Marine Protection | Bahamas News
Description
Thirty environmental experts from across The Bahamas just completed a high-impact week-long workshop to boost marine conservation, using the METT tool to evaluate how well 70 marine protected areas are actually being managed. Led by key agencies like the Bahamas National Trust and Department of Marine Resources, the initiative tackles urgent threats—from poaching and coral bleaching to invasive species and climate change—while building on a decade of conservation assessments. Funded by a bold move to refinance national debt, over $120 million is now dedicated to safeguarding these vital ocean ecosystems for the next 15 years.
