Mangroves – a new PACE resource

Mangroves are amazing and we are excited to have completed a new resource, 36 pages that provide an introduction to mangroves in Africa, created with Lamu Marine Conservation Trust in Kenya. LaMCoT, are based on the Lamu peninsula, a community organisation with thirty years experience (and success) in coastal and marine conservation.

Solving community waste management challenges – a new PACE film from Kenya

We are very proud to have worked with Lamu Marine Conservation Trust, a long-standing Tusk partner, and Africa Underwater. Together they created a new short film documenting a local waste management success story they [...]
