2. Study the ecosystem impact of the debris on the Mangrove

3. Share the study results to raise awareness and mobilize neighbourhood volunteers to conduct clean-up activities

4. Partner with regional stakeholders (tourism sectors, citizens etc) and share with them the clean-up manual and improve the situation surrounding the Mangrove area
