Relevant knowledge and experience includes:

  • broad community knowledge and experience in managing natural resources
  • knowledge of local natural resource management issues and opportunities
  • knowledge of sustainable farming practices (including commercial fishing and aquaculture)
  • knowledge and experience in practices and technologies that can reduce the emission of greenhouse gas from the agricultural sector and/or increase carbon stored in soil.
