The Aitutaki
Lagoon Monitoring Project is a project of the Pacific Islands Conservation
Initiative. PICI is a Non-Profit organisation based in the Cook Islands
working in areas of environmental research, conservation and education.
Our philosophy is that for conservation to work it must be driven
by the local communities that live in these remote islands. To that
end the Aitutaki Lagoon Monitoring Project intends to use science
to develop a long term data set to assist with the management of the
Aitutaki Lagoon by the people of the island.
