Mangrove Awareness and Study Programme
On 13 August 2026, an awareness and study programme on mangrove ecosystems was conducted for the international university students who had joined the Lanka Mangrove Museum and Learning Centre as volunteers.
The programme provided the students with an opportunity to learn about the importance of mangrove ecosystems, their ecological value, biodiversity, and the importance of mangrove conservation and restoration.
The students also participated in a practical study of mangroves, allowing them to gain first-hand experience and a better understanding of mangrove plants and their natural environment.
This programme provided a valuable opportunity for the international volunteers to connect their academic knowledge with practical field experience while learning about Sri Lanka’s mangrove ecosystems and conservation efforts.
