Commonwealth countries hold more than a fifth of mangroves in the world. But they are rapidly disappearing – globally, between 30 to 50% of mangroves have been lost over the past 50 years. New approaches to restoration of mangroves are emerging, benefiting from new, low-cost technologies. These can support the resilience of local communities across the Commonwealth through empowered engagement and innovative funding.
This webinar will:
- Provide an overview of the science and policy adopted by different nations to gather information required for better management of mangroves.
- Showcase learning through case studies from projects across the Commonwealth representing different regions.
- Highlight the various platforms available to move forward in a post COVID-19 world.
