Empowering local villages to plant + protect mangrove ecosystems. The SeaTrees x Mida Creek mangrove forest project is restoring 100+ hectares of degraded mangrove forest within the Malindi / Watamu National Marine Park and Reserve - a UNESCO Designated Biosphere Area + one of the world’s oldest Marine Protected Areas.
In partnership with local NGO partner COBEC and local communities , we are planting one million mangrove seedlings throughout the Mida Creek Region from January 2021 - March 2022.
In memorial of Arafa Salim Baya, who tragically passed on July 23, 2021 due to complications of COVID.
