- Monitoring plant growth, sedimentation, and shoreline change.
- Supporting management groups and enterprises compatible with conservation.
Locations and implementation
Programs operate in Buruk Bakul, Kelapa Pati, and Sepahat in Bengkalis Regency, and Tanjung Kuras in Siak Regency. Mangrove planting also takes place with communities in Teluk Piyai Pesisir, Rokan Hilir Regency. Local groups participate in nursery management, maintenance, and monitoring.
Results and monitoring
Records cover planting locations and areas, seedling numbers and species, and community participation. Plant monitoring assesses survival and growth. Seedlings planted and surviving trees are reported separately.
