The Climate Resilient Eastern Caribbean Marine Managed Areas Network (ECMMAN) Project is a four-year (2013-2017), multi-million dollar project funded by the International Climate Initiative (ICI) via The German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety (BMU) grant to The Nature Conservancy (TNC). Involving six beneficiary Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS) countries, the project is being implemented by The Nature Conservancy (TNC) in collaboration with a consortium of partners. The overall aim of the project is to improve fisheries and conserve and restore marine resources, while providing for sustainable job opportunities in coastal communities.
