Project Impacts

Yagasu has successfully engaged local communities to plant more than 30 million new mangrove trees in 12,300 ha degraded areas. We also mobilized local Community Patrolling Unit (CPU) to protect 25,000 ha mangrove forests divided into 7 zones in Aceh- and North Sumatra province. The protection efforts will be scaled-up to 90,000 ha mangrove ecosystem covering 3 provinces: Aceh, North Sumatra and Riau province.
