For the latest news across Belize, visit: http://edition.channel5belize.com/ On Monday night we reported on the Belize Audubon Society’s work with the Managed Access Programme. That programme was first piloted in one site and after seeing some positive results, there was a national roll out. It is considered a model to be followed in the region, but there are still some areas that need to be adjusted since in some quarters the benefits are not felt. The Belize Audubon Society is one of the N.G.O.s that manages the Lighthouse Reef Atoll, a popular fishing zone. In recent years, it has implemented a grassroots approach to meet the fisherfolks boat-to-boat. The initiative also strengthens relationships, encourage fisheries regulations compliance and promote sustainable fishing. News Five’s Andrea Polanco tagged along on a recent boat-to-boat meet up and shares more in the following story.
