This document was prepared by the Ministry of Environment, Climate Change, Disaster Management and Meteorology (MECDM) and the Ministry of Fisheries and Marine Resources (MFMR) with technical support from the Secretariat of the Pacific Regional Environment Programme (SPREP) through the By-catch and Integrated Ecosystem Management (BIEM) Initiative of the Pacific-European Union Marine Partnership (PEUMP) Programme, funded by the European Union and the Government of Sweden.
The vision of this plan is to ‘reduce the risk of crocodile attack on people, while ensuring the long-term conservation and management of the species based on science, culture and traditional knowledge, and through sustainable utilisation’. This vision has been translated into five key areas – response and removal of problem crocodiles, education and awareness, crocodile population monitoring, working towards the commercial use and export of crocodile products, and centralised and structured reporting and coordination.
