The Power of Mangroves: Restoring Coastal Resilience and Biodiversity

The world’s coastal ecosystems face numerous threats, from rising sea levels to habitat degradation. In this blog post, we delve into the critical role that mangroves play in coastal ecosystems and how CAPED is harnessing their power for environmental restoration.

Mangroves are nature’s protective barrier against salt intrusion and coastal erosion. CAPED’s dedicated efforts to plant mangroves along the Gambian coast are not only safeguarding communities from the devastating effects of salt intrusion but also nurturing thriving marine ecosystems. These unique habitats provide essential breeding grounds for fish, shrimps, and oysters, contributing to local livelihoods and the preservation of biodiversity.

By exploring CAPED’s mangrove restoration projects, readers will gain insights into the ecological importance of mangroves and how these efforts have a ripple effect on both environmental and community well-being.
