Huvalu Forest Conservation Area Niue. Project preparation document, a submission to the South Pacific Biodiversity Conservation Project by the Environment Unit, Community Affairs, Government of Niue

Abstract

This report is the Project Preparation Document (PPD) for the proposed Huvalu Forest Conservation Area. The primary objective of the PPD is to lay out the design for a project that conserves the biodiversity of the Huvalu forest through the development of village managed activities founded upon sustainable resource exploitation practices. A long term aim is to develop participatory planning and management skills at the village level so that project sustainability can be assured after SPBCP involvement ends.
