Description:"In 2010, the Palau International Coral Reef Center conducted a socio-economic assessment training exercise in Ngiwal State to (1) train conservation officers on how to conduct a socio-economic assessment as a tool to improve management of coastal and marine resources and (2) develop data collecting tools for an assessment of Ngiwal State (Oldiais, 2010). The 2010 study covered a total of 60 households with a focus on the "Ngiwal State Protected Areas and Natural Resource Management Plan" and utilized secondary data, household surveys, key informant interviews and focus group discussions. In 2015, Palau International Coral Reef Center in collaboration with the University of Queensland conducted another socio-economic study within six PAN States of Palau. The results illustrated in this report are based on Ngiwal State, one of the six PAN States. The study was conducted using household questionnaires and key informant interviews incorporating key socio-economic indicators at the regional level (Micronesia Challenge), National level (Palau Indicators) and site level (local management plan)--Executive Summary
