In March 2016, community members of Navakavu, with the help of the MACBIO team, set out to mark the boundaries of the their Tabu (no-take zone), situated in front of the 4 villages that make up the Yavusa Navakavu. Making use of the available surrounding resources, an appropriate number of mangrove sticks of approximately 2 meters length were used as pegs to mark the site. Using a crowbar, holes were dug into sandy substrates and the collected mangroves sticks were forced into the sand during low tide.
