@leuser_ecosystemleaf : The @whitleyawards recentl

@leuser_ecosystemleaf : The @whitleyawards recently published 20 incredible conservation achievements to emerge from 2020, proving positive progress can be made against the odds of a challenging year. The initiatives were led by 20 inspiring individuals and among them was Farwiza Farhan. Farwiza launched the first all-female ranger team to patrol and protect the rainforests of Sumatra. This is an historical achievement and hopefully this team will be the first of many.

Her effort to preserve the invaluable forest ecosystems which provide for communities and wildlife alike, also motivated her design of a Leuser Ecosystem Spatial Plan to build resilient defence against development schemes which is due to be passed this year.

Farwiza’s approach seeks to shift the balance of power to the local level, building capacity within communities to maintain and protect the beautiful Leuser ecosystem.

To kick off our 2021 Spotlight Series we spoke to

To kick off our 2021 Spotlight Series we spoke to Sandra, the wonderful director of IbizaPreservation. To read her interview in full please follow the link in our bio.

Is there a specific area of focus in your work that you are most interested in? Why?

We approach sustainability challenges developing strong alliances between all relevant stakeholders. Environmental issues are too complex to be solved by the administration, businesses or civil society alone  
What are you most excited about for the future of IbizaPreservation?

After 12 years of work we have become a small but influential entity that participates in shaping local relevant sustainability debates. Data from our Sustainability Observatory and our new Land Use Map are increasingly quoted by the press and used by various stakeholders.

The Aeolian Islands Preservation Foundation recent

The Aeolian Islands Preservation Foundation recently released their December Newsletter. Among lots of exciting news, they discussed some of their ongoing projects:

- Protection of the Grotta Caves using eco-friendly cables and buoys to prevent motorboats violating safety regulations, threatening the cave habitats. These sea caves are very important as they represent the ideal reproductive habitat of the Mediterranean Monk Seal.
- “ConsuMAREsponsabile" is an initiative launched as part of the ongoing responsible fishing project by BLUE in Salina and Stromboli. It also promotes local fish consumption and supports local fishermen, guaranteeing freshness, sustainability and provenance at km zero.
- The Municipality of Lipari joined the Greening the Islands Observatory, with the support of the AIPF, setting it on a path to become a leading island in green innovation. The Task Force will be composed of all major local, regional, national, and European players who need to be involved in the transition process towards self-sufficiency and sustainability.

Continuing with our director spotlight series, this week we asked Rebecca, director of the Menorca Preservation Fund, about her vision for the MEPF and the wider natural environment.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Is there a specific area of focus in your work that you are most interested in? Why?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The more I learn in this role, along with the more projects and organisations we support, the harder I find it to choose a favourite area of interest. I am fascinated by the transition to a more sustainable model of local food production and our role in supporting this but at the same time, I find Menorca’s ambitious energy transition to renewables very exciting
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What are you most excited about for the future of the MEPF?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Collaboration for me is the essence of our work and it is exciting to see that when you manage to create or support collaborative initiatives the positive impact on both our environment and our community is so much broader than working alone.

- Wildlife Wardens- A very scalable grassroots community project to inspire and empower local people to protect, restore, and enhance wildlife and habitat in their local area.
- Litter Free Sea- The Rockfish Litter Free Sea pilot project in Brixham will enable employees, customers, partners, and the wider local community to get involved clearing plastic pollution from the harbour to enhance its natural beauty and improve marine habitats.
