3. ACTIVE PROJECTS 

SUSTAINABLE AGROFORESTRY

The Forest Carbon Project (FCP) is a co benefit project to smallholder farmers supporting agroforestry programs. Ceriops pilot program focuses on sustainable agriculture by mapping existing farmlands for carbon credits to suppliment mixed farming and increase farm benefits from low emmission carbon projects.

GRADUATES CARRICULAR PROGRAM

Ceriops in partnership with local and International universities support the Marine research through a carricular exchange program that enhance graduates with expertise to understand and support Marine Conservation Programs through active and practical 12 week learning program

ECO STOVES FOR CONSERVATION

The local communities of Kenya depends sorely on wood fuel for daily use. To reduce on fuel wood and natural forest exploitation, Ceriops has designend a home made eco stove that reduces wood biomass and increased cooking efficiency. Communities can now afford cooking needs with the new improved eco stoves.

SEAWEED & SEAGRASS PROJECT

Coastal communities have a great potential for tapping into seaweed farming for product exports and seagrass meadows conservation. The project seeks to develop a blue carbon program with coastal communities to suppliment fishing as an economic activity for local livelihoods.
