In Anyronkopé and on Guin Island, ecological renaissance is underway. Supported by the WACA ResIP and FAO programs, mangrove restoration projects are fighting Mono's erosion. These 'Lungs of the Lagoon' are protected by local communities, forming a natural barrier against climate change while revitalizing fishery resources.
Results are already visible: over 5 hectares of mangroves replanted, a measurable decrease in erosion at protected sites, and the creation of a women's cooperative that adds value to mangrove products (wood, fish, salt). The project now serves as a model for other coastal initiatives in West Africa, from Guinea to Nigeria.
