Our Partner Burung Indonesia successfully completed field surveys of the White Cockatoo
Cacatua alba (Endangered) in North Maluku province. While hunting of wild White Cockatoos has slowed down in villages where we work, such as Kosa and Gandasuli, unfortunately hunting remains a threat in some satellite islands of North Maluku. One such location is Bacan, where we fear a collapse of White Cockatoo populations.
Our interventions include assessing the extent of poaching and empowering communities to develop alternative sustainable livelihoods. We are also helping local people to reforest degraded river banks and improve watershed management to secure the community s water supply.
