Rehabilitation, Conservation and Sustainable Utilization of Mangroves in Egypt

No results found.Mangroves produce a number of very valuable ecological benefits. However, these benefits are largely intangible and do not provide income or revenue for the managers of the mangroves or for other stakeholders living in and around them. Therefore, they are often considered as “wasteland” rather than as highly prized ecosystems. In order to capture the interest and understanding of all stakeholders in and around mangroves, it is important to try to convert some of this intangible ecological v alue into a monetary value. One way in which this can be done is through the development of ecotourism in the mangroves. Ecotourism can provide considerable benefits to the environment, local stakeholders, visitors to the mangroves and the agencies responsible for the management of the mangroves. With thorough planning and careful consideration of the economic, environmental and cultural aspects of such developments, ecotourism can contribute to conservation, education, resource protection and t he involvement and empowerment of local people. In addition to the development of ecotourism, the development of other income generating activities in and around mangroves can also contribute to the protection of the mangroves and improve the lives of local stakeholders. -
