Engaging with Future Environmental Leaders: A Visit from Ruhuna University Student

On December 5, 2024, the Lanka Mangrove Museum had the honor of hosting a Geography student from Ruhuna University. The student, who is currently working on an assignment focused on mangrove deforestation and protection, engaged in an enlightening discussion with our Museum Director.

This visit highlighted the vital role of academic research in addressing environmental issues. The student’s assignment provided an excellent opportunity to explore deeper insights into the challenges facing mangroves, while the discussion at the museum allowed for a meaningful exchange of ideas on effective conservation strategies.

At the Lanka Mangrove Museum, we are always thrilled to foster collaboration with students, researchers, and future environmental leaders. These interactions play a key part in broadening the understanding of environmental issues and shaping the next generation of conservationists.

We are proud to continue supporting education and research in mangrove protection and environmental sustainability. The collaboration with local universities like Ruhuna University is an essential part of our mission to protect and preserve the invaluable mangrove ecosystems.
