Mangrove Conservation Programme

Mangroves are increasingly recognised as vital natural assets in the face of climate change. They protect coastlines, prevent erosion, sequester carbon, support biodiversity and habitat and guarding communities against storms and rising seas.

This collection of e-learning resources and audio-visuals has been created to help learners:

  • Understand the ecological and cultural importance of lakes, wetlands and waterbodies.
  • Learn about the vital role of mangroves in the coastal ecosystem.
  • Build knowledge and be inspired to help support conservation and restoration efforts.

You will appreciate why conserving lakes, wetlands, and mangroves is not just a conservation priority— they are a climate imperative. Conserving freshwater ecosystems signals a future where nature-based solutions become central to climate action and local community members emerge as champions of sustainable change.

Educational resources on Water Conservation, Water Quality and Health are developed as part of the CSR programme of Earthwatch Institute India and Mitsubishi Electric India.
