Where enforcement practices are often uneffective and must be supplimented with community education and management deligation. PEPA also assists community based organizations to understand the relationship between themselves and the environment surrounding them. We then, where appropriate, facilitate the design, funding and implementation of pertinent solutions to address the specific needs and concerns of our community partners. Stakeholders' Support Programme PEPA works closely with essential stakeholders in both marine and terrestrial ecosystems. Our goal in this initiative is to instill a sense of environmental stewardship in those whose livelihoods depend on the long-term health and viability of the ecosystems they influence.
Current efforts focus on fishers, hotels, farmers, and ecotourism ventures.
We assist with education and technology transfer as well as capacity building, institutional strengthening and infrastructure enhancement. Environmental Advocacy Investigation of Environmental Complaints PEPA also provides an advocacy function for our members. We investigate complaints of environmental degradation and coordinate reporting and response from the relevant authorities. We highlight both sight specific and parish-wide environmental problems, which require attention from relevant authorities. We also coordinate community action concerning acute environmental concerns.
