Incorporate the Beausejour/Grenville Vale, Mount Hartman National Park and Moliniere marine protected areas into the Caribbean Birding Trail (CBT) project. Develop sustainable local tourism activities and livelihoods opportunities for local communities in and around the KBAs. Develop a marketing plan, build birding trails and infrastructure (e.g., observation platforms and towers), create interpretive signs and other outreach materials, rehabilitate tourist attractions, develop new recreational activities, and train interpretive guides and small-business owners to provide employment and highlight and conserve the unique biodiversity in Grenada.

Strategic Direction: 2 Integrate biodiversity conservation into landscape and development planning and implementation in six conservation corridors
