MMAs in Grenada and St. Vincent and the Grenadines are underfunded, understaffed, and therefore suffer from inadequate law enforcement and conservation management. Our team researched current fees, willingness to pay studies, and the value of ecosystem services to create presentations and policy briefs informing policy-makers about opportunities to increase MMA fees. Increasing fees will not only generate more income for the countries, but will also optimize opportunities for better management, training, and infrastructure in these important areas.born digitalStudent workspostersengCopyright and other restrictions may apply.
