A group of farmers in South Coast, Kwale County has changed their fortunes and environment through the growing and protection of mangroves. This is under the Mikoko Pamoja, an award-winning environment conservation project started in Kwale County in 2013. The Mikoko Pamoja project has also involved Edinburgh Napier University staff and students working with KMFRI to explore the ecological value of mangroves and methods of helping the ecosystem recover. This supports the planting and conservation of mangrove trees, as well as a community fund that is spent on building classrooms and buying textbooks for learners.
