Saviours of the Coast

Mangroves have been threatened by deforestation for decades, as agriculture and aquaculture, urban development and harvesting have caused the loss of more than a quarter of mangrove forests in the past 50 years. This is an inspiring story of the women who champion the preservation of vital mangroves in Gazi village, Kwale County.

This story is produced with the support of Journalists for Human Rights through the Voice for Women and Girls Rights Project.
