Description of locals satisfaction with the project
In Ref 1, it is claimed that for the intervention on the Gros Raisin beach, "the first feedbacks are positive".
In Ref 4, "the students took their role very seriously and really invested themselves in the tasks to be carried out"; "passers-by [...] show great interest in it and encourage its continuation. On social networks, citizens also show their enthusiasm for the project and are surprised by the difference between the area under protection [fenced] and the one with free access".

Goal setting and impacts delivery
In the planning phase, the project aimed to address issues in all 3 key priority areas, but impacts were not delivered in all three key areas.
Reaching original project goals
Please specify the achievements of the project goals
Climate action and biodiversity Goals:
-Expected storm / wave induced erosion and flooding:
“88 plants of 9 native coastal species conducive to maintaining the sediment were planted” [...] “As for the results on beach erosion [...] they will be observable in 3 to 5 years, when the planted trees create enough shade and their root systems are more developed” (Ref 1).
-Achieved increase in protected green space areas
In total, the Gros Raisin initiative fenced 171m2 dedicated to nesting sea turtles (Ref 3).
-Achieved increased number of protection areas
3 new protection areas were created (Ref 3).
-Achieved increased conservation or restoration of ecosystems:
“The environment has been naturally recolonised by fauna and flora thanks to the fencing [mise en défens] and all the planted species are in good health” (Ref 1); “Expected results of the micro-project: [...]Restoration of local biodiversity on the backshore” (Ref 2).
-Achieved increased number of species present:
"88 plants of 9 native coastal species [Thespesia populnea, Coccoloba uvifera, Tabebuia heterophylla, Bontia daphnoides, Ipomoea pes caprae, Bursera simaruba, Pisonia fragrans, Canavalia rosea Galba, Calophyllum calaba] conducive to maintaining the sediment were planted”; “Six months after planting, all the plants survived”(Ref 1; 4).
-Expected increased presence and recovery of wild species:
“Expected results of the micro-project: [...] Improvement in the site to facilitate nesting sea turtles” (Ref 2).
-Achieved improved prevention or control of invasive alien species:
"'clear invasive species from the Pont Café pond, particularly the giant Salvinia" (Ref 9).
Social justice and community Goals:
-Achieved increased support for education and scientific research:
Study on wastewater management; participation in the REMA research project; inclusion of the University of the Antilles (Ref 4; 7; 8).
-Achieved increased knowledge of locals about local nature:
Awareness and communication: Create a Waliwa culture among citizens" (Ref 5); “the population has been made aware” (Ref 1); “Beach goers were also made aware” (Ref 1); “Achieved result: [...] public awareness raised”(Ref 2);
40 schoolchildren (Aged 9-11) participated in workshops in class, at the nursery and on the site, in the framework of Gros Raisin intervention (Ref 4).
