Progress report for
Plantar 6,000 plantas de manglar en la Isla de Roatn
Achievement at a glance
In 2019, 20 reforestation's were completed that summed up to 9,560 mangrove plants. The reforestation of mangrove plants were done with volunteers and students from the different schools in the communities of Pensacola, Flowers Bay, Santa Elena, Punta Gorda, Jones Ville Point, Campa Bay and Brick Bay on the island of Roatan.In 2020, 2 reforestation's have been completed in the communities of French Cay. A total of 3,000 mangrove plants have been planted.
To date, we have planted 12,560 mangroves on the island of Roatan, which mean we have meet our goal of 6,000 committed and more. We plan to continue planting mangroves this year and continue in 2021. Some of the problems we have encountered are lack of funding for transportation, as well as sites were we can plant mangroves. Unfortunately, most people do not want mangroves planted. Although, in the last year or so we have had more people requesting to be part of the mangrove reforestation program, therefore we expect that in 2020 we can complete the 6,000 mangroves planted.
