United Nations - On the beaches of the twin Caribbean islands of Trinidad and Tobago, turtles have been laying their eggs for millions of years. But in the face of growing threats including hunting for meat, a local villager has taken action to preserve the country's turtle population. Watch how she mobilised her entire community to develop an ecotourism project to save both the turtles and the coastal forests of western Trinidad.
The UN Forum on Forests (UNFF) Secretariat partnered with the Global Environment Facility, the UN Environment Programme and the UN Department of Public Information to produce four films highlighting innovative and cross-sectoral sources of financing for sustainable forest management in small island developing states and low forest cover countries. This film is part of the UNFF Facilitative Process which aims to increase forest financing worldwide.
