Ecological Mangrove Restoration: enabling nature to do its work

Ecological Mangrove Restoration is an innovative technique of restoring degraded mangrove forests by only restoring the hydrology to its natural state. Thereby, the conditions are created so that the mangrove trees can naturally grow back. Compared to seedling planting projects, this approach is significantly cheaper and creates a mangrove forest with more different species of mangroves and other flora and fauna.
