Mangrove Maniacs
Defending the coast with mud boots, data, and relentless dedication
The Mangrove Maniacs. They don’t just care. They show up—week after week, waist-deep in mud, clearing overgrown channels and planting young mangroves with care. They test water quality like it’s their own backyard. Because in a way, it is. This is home. And they’re here to protect it.
Impact That Lasts
The Maniacs don’t do guesswork. Every action is grounded in research, monitoring, and local knowledge. In close partnership with STINAPA, they carry out mangrove restoration that actually works—tailored to what the ecosystem needs. It’s smart, long-term impact. And it’s working.
Mangrove Protection is a Team Effort
One of the Maniacs’ superpowers? They bring people in. Locals. Tourists. Students. Even entire classrooms. Because once you’ve planted a tree with your own hands or felt mangrove roots under your feet, you start seeing nature differently. Awareness grows alongside the forest.
