Mangroves play an important role in the environment. BEDS (Bangladesh Environment and Development Society) has been working for restoring mangroves since 2013. Till now BEDS has planted 2,70,000 mangroves and established 6 mangrove nurseries in the Sundarbans coastal region.
Coastal people are getting much profit from the mangrove nurseries and others are motivated by their achievement. Thus, mangrove coverage has been increasing with the hard work of coastal people.
Some of our beneficiaries said, “I live at Mathurapur village under Shyamnagar sub district of Satkhira district which is adjacent to Sundarbans. I work in the mangrove nursery. Mangrove plantation season is going on. Nursery saplings are in high demand for the survivability of the saplings. Many people are coming to our nursery and buying mangrove saplings. We are getting much profit from the mangrove saplings and contributing to our family. The area of the mangrove nursery is small. It’s our dream to increase our nursery area. So, we are working hard to fulfill our dream.”
We would like to thank all our donors for their contribution and faith for us. We are also requesting our donors to start monthly recurring donations. For recurring donation please find the link below;
