UNDP EQUATOR INITIATIVE CASE STUDY SERIES
Local and indigenous communities across the world are advancing innovative sustainable development solutions that wo

their impacts, or how they change over time. Fewer still have undertaken to tell these stories with community practition
themselves guiding the narrative.
To mark its 10-year anniversary, the Equator Initiative aims to ll this gap. The ollowing case study is one in a growing ser
that details the work o Equator Prize winners vetted and peer-reviewed best practices in community-based environmenconservation and sustainable livelihoods. These cases are intended to inspire the policy dialogue needed to take local succ

PROJECT SUMMARYThe successes o the Amal-Crab Bay initiative in conservingmarine resources in their tabu area, located on theeastern coastline o the island o Malekula, Vanuatu, hasbeen underpinned by the use o a traditional resourcemanagement system and innovative awareness-raisingeorts. The bay orms part o the Port Stanley mangrovearea, and is home to extensive ringing rees, sea grass beds,and a high abundance o crabs. This resource is critical orlocal livelihoods and ood security, and has been the ocuso sustainable harvesting regulations since 2002, when
community chies instituted a ban on harvesting within themangrove orests.
These community-led eorts have been strengthenedwith support rom an array o international partners; as aresult, the initiative has overseen an increase in marine andcoastal resources, compiled an evidence base or the baysmangrove ecosystem, and developed local ecotourisminrastructure.

Crab Bay is a critically important area or biodiversity in the Pacicrchipelago o Vanuatu, situated in Malampa Province, on the central
astern coastline o the island o Malekula. The bay orms part o the
ort Stanley mangrove area, and is composed o extensive ringing
ees with sea grass beds. The area is particularly well-known or its
igh abundance o crabs, hence its name; the bay is also home to
high diversity o invertebrate species and n shes, and provides
oosting and eeding grounds or a variety o internationally
ndangered species such as turtles, dugongs, and some terrestrial
mammals.
he local populations o Crab Bay and the neighbouring area o
Amal totaled around 1,500 in 2005, living in sixteen communities
ispersed along the eastern coastline. These indigenous Melanesianommunities speak the uripiv dialect and share traditional
ustomary belies typical o the small Nambas people o central
Malekula. Approximately eighty percent o the population is
ngaged in shing and arming to eed their amilies and earn cash

Key Activities and Innovations
he AKTE mandate includes two zones: the tabu area, in whicharvesting is prohibited, and an access area that extends along the
oast, in which regulations ensure that crab harvesting is conducted
n a sustainable ashion. The AKTE Committee has established clear
ules to govern both, on display within the bay area. The strict
protection o biodiversity within the tabu area has spillover eects
or the access area, ensuring a reuge area or breeding stocks o
marine species.
Tabu area prohibitions:
No terrestrial or marine resources, including plants and animals,
may be killed or removed rom the AKTE.
No non-living resources, including dead wood, stones, shells,coral rubble, or sand, may be removed rom the AKTE.
All household waste must be disposed in disposal drums in the
area.
No person may make res or cook ood outside the areas

Enorcement:
or all violations o the tabu area rules, a 5,000 VT (approximately
USD 53) ne is levied per entrance into the area. For instance, i a
roup or individual enters on three separate occasions to remove
rabs or sand, the ne would be 15,000 VT. This ne must be paid
o the AKTE Committee within a period o two weeks. Violations o
ocal access area rules are the responsibility o the respective local
ommunities, however.
norcement o the tabu area regulations, rom monitoring
nringements to giving and collecting penalty nes, is carried out
y the AKTE Committee. In the case o disputed penalties, parties
may state their claim to the committee, which will then make a nal
ecision. Ensuring that violators pay nes is delegated to individual
illage chies; where necessary, the Malampa Police Department also
as the responsibility to ensure that guilty parties pay the necessary
nes.
Monitoring:
As well as governing resource use, the AKTE Committee is responsible
or overseeing biological and socioeconomic monitoring. In 2004,
ommunity volunteers were trained in collecting baseline data and
onducting ongoing studies. Five principal methods have been
mployed in these eorts: ree checks, monitoring marine resources
including sh, invertebrates, and coral health; crab surveys, u
regular land crab counts; market surveys, tracking sales o crab
the local Lakatoro market; socioeconomic surveying, assessing
use o crabs and other resources at the household level; and tro
assessments, measuring stocks and harvest sizes o T. niloticus
snails, a valuable local resource.

Impacts
BIODIVERSITY IMPACTS
The biodiversity benets o the Crab Bay tabu area have been seen
n increased populations o various marine species collected by local
ommunities or consumption and sale in local markets, as well as
marked improvements in the mangrove orests and ree ecosystems.
n 2004, AKTE community volunteers took part in a stock assessment
nd ree check, recording the benets o sustainable management
or species including land crab, mangrove and terrestrial orests,
rochus, turtle, dugong, clams, coral rees, Crown-o-thorns starsh,
humphead wrasse (Cheilinus undulatus), mangrove bats, and various
eabird species.
Resource use regulations have positively benetted the AKTE
arget species o land crabs, as demonstrated by regular surveys
o Cardisoma crab harvests taken rom the projects access areas.
Between 2005 and 2010, the crab harvest increased rom 27,760
o 119,300, representing an increase o around 430%. This steady
ncrease in annual harvests has validated the efcacy o the tabu and
ccess area regulations or the Crab Bay and Amal communities, and
has resulted in the extension o the AKTE period until 2016.
SOCIOECONOMIC IMPACTS
The AKTE initiative has generated economic benets or the
members o its constituent communities through two mainhannels. The organization collects money through ees or access to
he conservation site, as well as an anchorage ee or mooring yachts
n the access area. This is an income stream that the project hopes to
exploit through the urther development o ecotourism. The AKTE
Committee has also begun collecting revenue rom the use o the
newly-constructed inormation centre. These revenues have been
einvested in building a water system at the project site.
The second source o economic benet or the communities o Amal
nd Crab Bay has come through increased sales o land crabs at
market. The increase in harvests noted between 2005 and 201
430% has translated into an increase in annual sales rom 555
VT (USD 6,019) to 2,386,000 VT (USD 25,868) over the same pe
emphasizing the substantial benet o sustainable crab harve
to local communities. Cardisoma crabs are also a common so
o meat or villagers within the project area. While most meat
eaten a ew times a month, Cardisoma are typically gathered
4 times a week by 95% o local households; the increase in
availability has thereore also improved local ood security.

The economic value o the areas natural resources extends beyond
cash income realized rom the sale o commercial species. Fornstance, several types o mangrove and other tree species are used
as door posts, ence posts, poles in gardens, place markers, bows,
arrows and spears, axe handles, and house raters. Socioeconomic
urveys conducted in 2004 and 2005 detail the high degree o
eliance on coastal and marine biodiversity or a variety o uses; the
ustainable management o these resources since 2002 has ensured
hat communities have continued to benet rom Crab Bays range
o provisioning ecosystem services.
POLICY IMPACTS
The Amal-Crab Bay Community Resource Management Initiative
has had a signicant impact on policies aimed at the sustainablemanagement o marine and coastal resources within Vanuatu,
orming a key component o the International Waters Project
trategy or the country and within the Pacic region. This has been
olidied by the presence o three representatives o the AKTE
communities being given positions in the Vanuatu Department
o Forestry, Fisheries and Agriculture. Technical experts rom the
department in these respective elds have also visited the site to
provide assistance.
The prole o the group has been boosted in recent years b

Sustainability and Replication
SUSTAINABILITYhe sustained impact o the AKTE initiative is largely based on the
trong support it enjoys among its sixteen constituent communities.
his is evidenced by the internal replication o the tabu approach
o conserving the areas natural heritage. Five member communities
ave established similar restricted access arrangements to their river
esources, replicating the success o the AKTE model on smaller
cales.
n addition to this social sustainability, the organisation is attempting
o become nancially sel-sustainable through the development o
cotourism. Beginning in 2008, the AKTE Committees Eco-culturalourism Project used unding rom the Global Environment Facility to
tart work on the AKTE Inormation Centre. This was supplemented
y unds raised rom a one-time harvesting o trochus in 2009; these
unds were used to begin the construction o a barbecue house that
will serve tourists. In 2010, the outer walls o both constructions were
ompleted, while an AKTE community member has participated in
n eco-guide workshop. An increase in tourism numbers over the
ext ew years would generate revenue rom conservation area
ntrance ees and associated enterprise growth.
Environmental education and awareness-raising
Another strategy being employed to improve long-termustainability is that o environmental education. With the support
the provincial government authority and rom international JICA
olunteers, AKTE has developed a pilot Crab Bay Environmental
ducation programme. The organization educates young pupils
rom local schools and communities about traditional methods
conservation. Designated community representatives act as
nowledge resources or this programme, while the management
ommittee has recently identied uture representatives to succeed
he sixteen current representatives o the member communities. In
010 and 2011, the organization provided environmental training
to ve schools and all sixteen communities with unding rom
provincial government.
This has also used traditional drama to convey educational mess
on conservation, supported by the Wan Smolbag Theatre group
Vanuatu-based group o actors works with communities on so
health, human rights and environmental issues, and has success
developed an awareness-raising River Play, emphasizing
importance o community conservation o coastal rivers and stre
as reshwater sources.
