Marshall Islands Conservation Society is a non-government organization dedicated to promoting public awareness and environmental conservation projects to protect the natural resources of the Republic of the Marshall Islands. How do you implement conservation in the Marshall Islands? For the past four years, MICS has been a part of the Coastal Management Advisory Council, and has been working closely with partnering agencies such as the Marshall Islands Marine Resources Authority, RMI Environmental Protection Authority, College of the Marshall Islands, Marshalls Islands Visiting Agency and Majuro Atoll Waste Company in implementing conservation efforts all over the Marshall Islands. Because it is vital through our "Reimaanlok" National Conservation Plan to initiate conservation efforts at the community level, we assist and encourage each local government to indentify conservation needs within their communities. With help from partnering agencies, it is easier for us to work within each community achieve their target conservation goals. How far has the HF Radio Project reached within the RMI? So far MICS has reached the following atolls/islands: Wotje, Jaluit, Likiep, Ailuk, Mili, Aur, Ebon, Majuro, Ailinglaplap and Namdrik. However we do have focal people in other islands which include: Ujae, Lae Wotho, Jabat, Arno, Utrik, Rongelap, and Maloelap. So for instance, with ongoing radio networking during Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, we are able to inform islands about upcoming battery collections and share vital information with islands that have management plans. If our islands are covered with water, would we still be considered a Nation? The Marshall Islands, among other nations like Maldives, Kiribati, and Tuvalu and other small island nations, are threathened by rising sea levels. This affects our nation's sovereignity, way of life, and cultural heritage. To learn more about this issue, read Environment & Energy Publishing, LLC. 202/628-6500. | Ongoing Projects |
