Intro | A Hawksbill Haven
For two decades, WWF-Canada has been helping to conserve the coral reefs, mangrove swamps, and other key habitats that support Cuba's exuberant diversity of life.
 We have gone from pilot projects to full-scale, regional initiatives that are greening Cuban tourism, promoting sustainable fishing practices, and building a network of marine protected areas. In the process, we have earned the respect of the federal government and local communities alike.
And while our conservation expertise is making an impact in Cuba, Canada has much to learn in return. Cuba is currently the only country on the globe to meet WWF's criteria for sustainable development, minimizing its ecological footprint while preserving a healthy standard of living.
