GLOBAL MANGROVE WATCH

GMW-Black_4x-203x240.png

Global Mangrove Watch (GMW) is an online platform that provides the remote sensing data and tools for monitoring mangroves necessary for this. Global Mangrove Watch is the evidence base informing the Global Mangrove Alliance, a collaboration of organisations working to increase the world’s mangrove cover 20% by 2030.
