Mangroves play an important ecological role and provide habitat for many animals and plants. They protect coastlines from erosion, tsunamis, and storms and serve as carbon sinks. However, they are under severe threat due to climate change.

Threatened ecosystems: The Sundarbans mangroves
The Sundarbans Mangroves, the world's largest mangrove ecosystem, is particularly threatened. Our goal is to counteract the disappearance of the mangroves by actively planting trees and thus preserving this unique ecosystem for future generations.

Protecting coastal communities
Our May tree-planting project offers an opportunity to preserve the Sundarbans while creating new livelihoods for coastal residents. We follow the nine steps for community-based ecological mangrove restoration (CBEMR) to ensure long-term benefits for local communities. This includes, for example, education and training to provide residents with the knowledge and skills they need to protect and sustainably use the mangrove forests.
