Myanmar's changing mangroves Implications for nature, people and climate

Myanmar is home to globally significant mangrove forests, which support numerous endangered species, and are vital to local economies and society. However, these forests are undergoing rapid changes, putting the people and nature that depend upon them at risk. The UN-REDD project " Integrating mangroves sustainable management, restoration and conservation into REDD+ Implementation " focuses on tackling the destruction and degradation of mangrove ecosystems by working with local mangrove-dependent communities.
