BAKA-JUAN PROJECT

A MANGROVE REFORESTATION AND

COASTAL CLEANUP
COMMUNITY-BASED PROJECT

WHY BAKA-JUAN PROJECT

REFORESTATION OF MANGROVE BECAUSE OF DWINDLING
NUMBER OF MANGROVE TREES IN THE AREA BROUGHT
ABOUT BY OVERHARVESTING AND WATER POLLUTION
SPECIES OF FISH AND ORGANISMS ARE BECOMING FEW
BECAUSE THEIR HABITAT AND BREEDING AREAS ARE
BEING DESTROYED
INCREASING NUMBER OF GARBAGE BEING THROWN AWAY
IN THE COASTAL AREA AND WATERWAYS CONTRIBUTING
TO WATER POLLUTION
DECREASING WATER QUALITY AND THE NUMBER OF
ORGANISMS ARE DEPLETING WHICH RESULTS TO INCOME
CUT

... THEREFORE, THERE IS

A NEED FOR THE
COMMUNITY TO TAKE AN
ACTION BEFORE THE
DAMAGE WILL BECOME
IRREVERSIBLE

COMMUNITY-BASED PROJECT

OVERVIEW OF THE
IMPLEMENTATION

STAGE 1. PRE-IMPLEMENTATION STAGE

THIS WILL BE THE FIRST PART OF IMPLEMENTATION WHICH EVENTUALLY
ENCOMPASSES THE PROCESSING OF REQUEST FOR THE APPROVAL OF THE
COMMUNITY BASED PROJECT. CERTAIN SPECIES OF MANGROVE SEEDLINGS SUCH AS
BAKAWAN OR BAKAUAN-LALAKI (RHIZOPHORA APICULATA BLUME) AND BAKAUAN-
BABAE (RHIZOPHORA MUCRONATA LAM) ARE TO BE REQUESTED FROM THE
PROVINCIAL MANGROVE NURSERY THROUGH THE MUNICIPAL AGRICULTURE OFFICE

STAGE 2. IMPLEMENTATION STAGE

THIS PART SUMMARIZES THE STEPS IN THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PROJECT WHEREIN
VOLUNTEERS AND THE PROPONENT/S CONDUCT THE MANGROVE PLANTING ACTIVITY IN
COORDINATION WITH VARIOUS STAKEHOLDERS AS WELL AS COASTAL-CLEANUP AND
INFORMATION DRIVE CAMPAIGN ABOUT THE PROPER WASTE DISPOSAL.

BUDGET, MATERIALS,
AND RESOURCES
 WHY MANGROVE IS
MORE THAN JUST A TREE
Home to thousands
of species
A wide variety of species live or breed in
the mangrove ecosystem, from fish and
crabs to birds.

Unfortunately, when mangrove forests are gone, it can disrupt

and threaten the survival of many wildlife.

Carbon absorber
Mangrove forests contribute to the
fight against global warming by
absorbing carbon dioxide from the
atmosphere.

Moreover, mangrove forests are one of the top three carbon-

capturing ecosystems.

A natural coastal fortress

Mangroves act as a natural fortress

against floods and storm surges. The
sediments from the land and the river are
filtered by the roots of mangroves,
eventually protecting the coastline and
slowing erosion.
THERE IS ONLY ONE EARTH WE HAVE
AND IT IS OUR DUTY TO PROTECT IT
FOR THE FUTURE GENERATIONS TO
COME
