Mangroves protecting shoreline
Nature-based resilience

Protection can work with the coast, not just against it.

Mangroves and restored coastal ecosystems can reduce erosion, absorb wave energy, and improve shoreline resilience while also supporting biodiversity and local livelihoods.

Resilience planning

Governments and partners can use assessments, local consultation, and risk mapping to prioritize where support is needed first.

Nature-based protection

Mangroves, revegetation, and ecosystem restoration can help stabilize coastlines and reduce physical exposure.

Planned relocation

In severe cases, communities may need structured relocation that protects dignity, land connections, and long-term livelihood options.
