Identifying and Monitoring Terrestrial Conservation Priorities in the Comoro Islands, and Building Results into Policy and Practice

Map the remaining forests of the Comoro Islands to study the drivers of deforestation and the possible alternatives to cultivation and extraction of ylang-ylang, an essential oil that is a key element in the local economy; and define conservation plans for two important endangered species relying on these forests, Livingstone's fruit bat (Pteropus livingstonii) and mongoose lemur (Eulemur mongoz).
