dc.description.abstractCurrent trends in illegal mangrove harvesting, degradation and destruction of breeding sites, and increased beach and coastal erosion, cause collapse of houses near the seashore. There is lack of fuel-saving technologies and alternative sustainable timber sources and a decrease of certain species of mangrove for boat construction and building. The workshops enhance knowledge of the contribution of biodiversity conservation to livelihoods, and assist communities in demonstrating the value of conservation to politicians and senior policy makers. The workshops allowed coastal communities an opportunity to interact and share practical experiences in marine resource use and management, and to articulate their needs.en
