Grant Amount: $149,846.00 Project Dates: October 01, 2015 - March 31, 2018 Date of Report: May 31, 2018 Implementation Partners List each partner and explain how they were involved in the project • Dahari (Comorian NGO): Dahari is leading the implementation of the activities on Anjouan through its technical staff (one socio-economic researcher, one marine ecologist and a team of community field technicians). Blue Ventures has been providing Dahari with technical support and training in ecological monitoring, project management and community-based participatory approaches to marine conservation via the Project Manager. • Moheli Marine Park (MMP) (Comorian institution and national park): Blue Ventures and MMP have exchanged experiences and shared learning around community-based fisheries management, especially around octopus closures. Blue Ventures has also provided technical support to MMP in planning and designing a methodology for fisheries monitoring, as well as an introduction to the use of smartphone-based data collection methods (Open Data Kit). Conservation Impacts Summarize the overall impact of your project, describing how your project has contributed to the implementation of the CEPF ecosystem profile • One temporary reef closure is now being managed by the community.

Vol. 22 - Comoros
Marubeni Research Institute 2016/09/02 Sub -Saharan Report Sub-Saharan Africa is one of the focal regions of Global Challenge 2015. These reports are by Mr. Kenshi Tsunemine, an expatriate employee working in Johannesburg with a view across the region. Vol. 22 - Comoros June 10, 2016 It was well known that Marilyn Monroe wore Chanel No. 5 perfume when she went to bed. Did you know that Chanel No. 5’s essence (essential oils) comes from the flower called ylang-ylang, which is found in the African country of Comoros? Comoros is also where the so-called “living fossils”, a rare pre-historic species of fish called coelacanths, discovered in 1938 in South Africa after having thought to be extinct, are mostly found. So this time I would like to introduce the country of Comoros, fascinating like Marilyn Monroe and a little mysterious like the coelacanths. Table 1: Comoros Country Information The Union of the Comoros is an archipelago island nation located off the coast of East Africa east of Mozambique and northwest from Madagascar. 4 main islands make up the Comoros archipelago, Grande Comore, Moheli, Anjouan and Mayotte, with Grande Comore, Moheli, and Anjouan forming the Union of Comoros and Mayotte falling under French jurisdiction as an ‘overseas department” or region. The population of the 3 islands making up the Union of the Comoros is about 800,000, while their total land area comes to 2,236 square kilometers, about the same land size as Tokyo, which makes it quite a small country. Nominal GDP is roughly $600 million, which is second from the bottom among the 45 sub-Saharan African countries, just above Sao Tome and Principe, and its population is the 5th lowest (note 1). -
