BEDS has started the mangrove plantation activities at Paschim Dhangmari village under Banishanta Union of Dacope Sub district of Khulna district of Bangladesh on 10th February 2021. Now the plantation activity is going on well. So far we have planted around 5000 mangroves in our selected place. Local community is participating in the plantation activity spontaneously. Specially, the children are very much interested in plantation activity. We hope that we would be able to plant 20,000 mangroves in our selected lands within this month. It is required to be mentioned that we are purchasing the mangrove saplings from the nursery owners whom BEDS has assisted to establish mangrove nurseries to improve their livelihood. Local government representatives are also inspiring the local villagers to participate in the plantation activity. We are also negotiating with the land owners to protect the planted mangroves for the betterment of nature and their livelihoods. Field staffs of BEDS are doing the monitoring activities of the planted saplings. As a whole, our mangrove plantation activity is going on well.
Very recently, we have prepared a video documentary on our mangrove restoration activities entitled ‘Mangrove Restoration Initiatives of BEDS’. To watch the documentary, visit the following link; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhVSob4ADtk
We are absolutely grateful to our donors for their support so far. We want to request all our donors to start monthly recurring donations for the betterment environment.
