Sundarbans Shield
Livelihoods Funds
The Sundarbans is the world's largest mangrove forest — and it's drowning. Rising seas threaten 4.5 million people. Livelihoods Fund has planted 16 million mangroves since 2011, creating a living sea wall. Where there were mudflats, crab collectors now make a living. Where there was erosion, roots hold the delta together.
