We have sculptured this NGO as best we can to mesh every ingredient to make conservation work and be sustainable.

TCA has reached major milestones this year by facilitating five Local Level Government meetings in which resolutions were passed in support of the Torricelli Mountain Range Protected Area (TMRPA). This is a huge step & a requirement in getting the TMRPA approved. This process is close to completion. TCA, also with the UNDP &CEPA, is improving & developing food security & cash crops with the 50 villages of the project area.

  • March Mammal Madness and the Power of Narrative in Science Outreach
    FEATURE ARTICLE EDUCATION AND OUTREACH March Mammal Madness and the power of narrative in science outreach Abstract March Mammal Madness is a science outreach project that, over the course of several weeks in March, reaches hundreds of thousands of people in the United States every year. We combine four approaches to science outreach – gamification, social media platforms, community event(s), and creative products – to run a simulated tournament in which 64 animals compete to become the tournament champion. While the encounters between the animals are hypothetical, the outcomes rely on empirical evidence from the scientific literature. Players select their favored combatants beforehand, and during the tournament scientists translate the academic literature into gripping “play-by-play” narration on social media. To date ~1100 scholarly works, covering almost 400 taxa, have been transformed into science stories. March Mammal Madness is most typically used by high-school educators teaching life sciences, and we estimate that our materials reached ~1% of high-school students in the United States in 2019. Here we document the intentional design, public engagement, and magnitude of reach of the project. We further explain how human psychological and cognitive adaptations for shared experiences, social learning, narrative, and imagery contribute to the widespread use of March Mammal Madness.

O Box 1304, Wewak, East Sepik Province, Papua New Guinea Email: [email protected] Website: www.tenkile.com Executive Summary The island of New Guinea contains 7% of the world’s biodiversity and is the third largest expanse of tropical rainforest following the Amazon and Congo. The Torricelli Mountain Range, north-west Papua New Guinea (PNG), is unique in that it is the only place known that is home to three species of tree kangaroo, the Scott’s Tree Kangaroo (Tenkile), the Golden-mantled Tree Kangaroo (Weimang) and the Grizzled Tree Kangaroo (Yon- gi). Other endemic species include the Black-spotted cuscus (PNG’s largest cuscus) and the Northern Glider. The Tenkile, Weimang, Black-spotted Cuscus and Northern Glider are all classified as critically endangered by the IUCN. The Torricelli’s therefore has a high level of endemism and biodiversity significance. The Tenkile Conservation Alliance (TCA), established in 2001, aims to protect the unique biodiversity of the Executive Summary 1 Torricelli Mountain Range; PNG. TCA uses the tree kangaroos as flagship species for achieving broad forest Background 3 conservation outcomes. A main objective is to establish this mountain range as a legislated Conservation Area. Conservation Area 4 Jim and Jean Thomas have been responsible for managing this project since January 2003.
