Marine and Coastal Biodiversity

Innovative learning programme on Coastal and Marine Biodiversity and Protected Area Management

We develop educational and learning programmes on marine biodiversity and ecosystem services. In 2016, we worked with GIZ India for designing field-learning material and field-based activities for IFS officer trainees as part of the ‘Training programme on Coastal and Marine Biodiversity and Protected Area Management’ at Andaman and Nicobar Islands. The training programme used a competencies-based curriculum and was conducted using a participatory training approach and innovative learning methods, developed by GIZ India in association with Earthwatch Institute India.
