The Republic of Maldives consists of some 1190 small islands exposed to
the threats of the sea level rise. With supports from Government offices of the Maldives, ISME has been implementing
project in Maldives in the years of 2000, 2001, 2002 and 2003. In the year 2006, ISME is raising a nursery of some
coastal tree species including mangroves to be planted along the coast. The objective of the Project is to restore
the coastal forests destroyed by the recent 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami. Project activities are in progress in collaboration with the local communities.
The Project is funded by the Japan Fund for Global Environment.
