Full Description

The Greenbelt Reports (GBR) is a multi-media, Asian regional educational project to document the conservation challenges involving mangroves, coral reefs and sand reefs - collectively called 'greenbelts' in recognition of their natural protective role against wave action and anticipated climate change impact. Our aim is to investigate and report on efforts to balance conservation needs with socio-economic needs of coastal communities. Stories will come from coastal areas in South and Southeast Asia.
