Summary
ABALOBI collaborated with Blue Ventures and Dahari on Anjouan Island in Comoros. The focus of this project was to assist data collectors in remote communities in collecting data before, during, and after community-driven reef closures for octopus harvesting. These communities are highly dependent on reef harvesting for food security, making these data collection initiatives and their improved efficiency crucial for effective community management measures and decision-making.
