Building Community Capacity to Achieve Conservation Outcomes for Priority Bat Species in the Polynesia-Micronesia Hotspot: A Pilot Study on Samoa

Develop a model protocol for community capacity building to survey and monitor priority bat species across the Polynesia-Micronesia Hotspot. Lessons from engaging local partners in assessing bats on Samoa and the possible success of survey techniques are expected to leverage further long-term funding to implement future training in survey and monitoring techniques.
