• • La European Commission currently is POS Manu’s largest provider of funds. It supported us through 2 projects :
  • The BEST project that was organised around two specific actions:
    1. lasting prevention of the introduction of Alien Invasive Species (AIS) into inhabited islands still free of Black Rats (Ua Huka and Rimatara) and of Great Horned-Owl (Tahuata);
    2. lasting control of the AIS populations that have already infested the islands of Tahiti and Fatu Hiva
  • The Vahanga/Gambier project which purpose was to eradicate AIS from the Vahanga and Tenarunga atolls (Acteon, South of Tuamotu), on 3 islets of Gambier archipelago and another atoll, Temoe, localised in the very south of Tuamotu. .

L’Office français de la biodiversité (OFB) est un établissement public dédié à la sauvegarde de la biodiversité.
Il est chargé de la protection et la restauration de la biodiversité dans l’Hexagone et en Outre-mer.

Since 2009, the Polynesian Ornithological Society Manu is in full partnership with Birdlife international. This international Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) aims at protecting the Nature, especially the birds. It federates 120 NGO representing many countries, thousands of amateur naturalists, professional ornithologists, ecologists, scientists and conservation managers. Liaising with local authorities, governments and international organisations, BirdLife int. yields scientific data and provides an expertise on birds conservation as well as on the protection, management and restoration of their habitats. Its « Preventing Extinction » program and network have been very helpful, even more so in 2014 through an emergency call that raised enough funds to finance all the Monarch-related actions.

In 2015, in collaboration with Island Conservation and Manu, Birdlife International carried on a hudge restoration project of 3 atolls and 3 islets of Acteon and Gambier in South French Polynesia.

Great thanks to this fellow organization.

The David & Lucille Packard Foundation supports the restoration programs in the Acteon islands and in the Gambier archipelago, through an eradication of predators.
