To improve understanding of the impact of communities on their natural ecosystems, land use surveys conducted in the three Key Biodiveristy Areas (KBA) of West Malekula: Wiawi, Bamboo Bay and Tisiri Lagoon.

Ornithologist Andrew Morris joined the Biological Rapid Assessment (BIORAP) team to Malekula to lead the bird study in Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) in July 2022. Bird species were identified by listening to bird calls, audio recordings, visual sighting, and photographs taken with special bird cameras. In the KBAs, the key bird species found include the Vanuatu Kingfisher, Vanuatu Streak Fantail, and Vanuatu White Eye.
