Summary

This project executes a post-disaster mangrove restoration and sustainable management plan, based on an ecosystem risk assessment, for the benefit of effected communities. In post-disaster planning, we often overlook the dependence of society on nature,putting ecosystem services to people at risk. In BVI, mangroves provide services such as hurricane shelter, ecotourism, education and nurseries to support local fisheries. Through of the restoration of mangroves, this Nature-based Solution invests in regaining the ecosystem services decimated by hurricanes Irma and Maria.
