What is the role of our ENVIS Centre in conserving mangrove forests?

  1. Our objective is to spread knowledge on mangroves and other coastal ecosystems and to implant the importance of them in people’s minds.
  2. We collect scientific information on mangroves.
  3. We disseminate the information in various forms and formats{link please} to the school and college students, scholars, teachers, scientists, ecologists, environmentalists, policy makers and to the common public.
  4. We appreciate feedbacks from all and try to improve ourselves further to contribute to the well-being of mangroves and other coastal ecosystems.
