Under the RESILAO project, our team engaged in open dialogue with fishermen and fishmongers from Furna, Fajã d’Água, Lomba and Tantum to reflect on the importance of Marine Protected Areas for Brava Island.

Cape Verde Shearwater Season – Brava Island
In June & July 2025, the species showed great activity. Huge thanks to our team & volunteers for their commitment to monitoring and protecting this endemic seabird! 💚

For the first time, we used the AXYRadar to monitor the Cape Verde Shearwater (Calonectris edwardsii) on Brava Island. This tech tracks GPS + vessel radar signals, helping us understand how these endemic seabirds interact with boats, key data for conservation.

The RESILAO team is working with Brava Island’s community to protect local biodiversity.
We’ve gathered 248 signatures for the creation of the island’s first protected area. Big thanks to everyone involved!
