Niue Showcases its Biodiversity
A new eco-tourism initiative showcasing the Huvalu Forest Conservation Area has just been launched in Niue, with the aim of informing, educating and exciting both visitors and locals on the importance of Niue’s forests in sustaining the island’s ecosystems, culture, and biodiversity conservation.
The forest area covers almost a quarter of the South Pacific nation, and is located in one of the world’s 34 ‘biodiversity hotspots’, where some of the most threatened plant and animals on earth can be found.
Funded by FAO, the extensive project involved scientific research and the development of a number of educational installations and resources
