LMMAs are areas of ocean managed by coastal communities to help protect fisheries and safeguard marine biodiversity. For a country like Madagascar, with a coastline 5,200 kilometres long, LMMAs often represent the only effective management approach available for remote communities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Madagascar\u2019s first LMMA was created in 2003. Today, MIHARI is composed of more than 190 LMMA communities and 23 member organisations. The network operates in four regional subdivisions: Northwest (Boeny, Diana and Sofia), Northeast (Analanjirofo and Sava), Midwest (Melaky and Menabe) and South (Anosy and Atsimo Andrefana).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>The Dugong Festival warns of the dwindling population of dugongs<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The MIHARI Network obtained funding from the <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.dugongconservation.org\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">GEF Dugong and Seagrass Conservation Project<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for an initiative called &#8220;Fisher knowledge, awareness and behaviour change for the conservation of dugongs and seagrass using the MIHARI network of Locally Managed Marine Areas in Madagascar.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dugongs, called <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">trozona<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">lambohara<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">lambondriaka<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in Madagascar, are marine mammals whose population is declining because of habitat destruction and other anthropogenic pressures.
