In the MABCBIO project, ACMCA was taken as focus area for community managed marine protected areas. This report examines the successes, challenges and lessons learned from the Arnavon Islands Community Marine Conservation Area (ACMCA). The objective of this research was to examine the various conservation efforts, methods and approaches applied in the Arnavons and assess what has worked, what has not worked and the main lessons learned.
