The Samoa Conservation Society on Wednesday launched a new national network to strengthen community rangers and improve community-led protection of forests, marine areas, and biodiversity as climate pressures grow. The Conservation Area Support Network (CASN) was officially launched on 22 April at the Vailima Botanical Garden Information Fale as part of a broader project to scale up community-based climate resilience across Samoa.
The CASN brings together participating villages of Lalomanu, Uafato, Malololelei, Magiagi, Moamoa, Aopo, and Falealupo, united under a shared commitment to protect and sustainably manage their natural resources, including forests, marine areas, and biodiversity.
