Enhancing mangrove restoration through innovative and sustainable design solution for Sri Lanka

Abstract

Mangrove forests are critical for coastal protection, biodiversity, and carbon storage, but they suffer substantial risks from coastal development and climate change. This study critically evaluates previous mangrove conservation initiatives and emphasizes the need for innovative ways to improve present methods. Based on sustainable design principles, the research proposes identify a path to develop a product for increasing the mangrove restoration challenges, to focus to the product's design, assesses. The success and limitations of prior protection techniques, and investigates the integration of environmentally friendly materials and sophisticated design elements. This study seeks to improve mangrove restoration efforts and encourage their preservation by offering a novel strategy that combines sustainable materials and current technologies. The findings offer practical recommendations for enhancing mangrove protection and underscore the potential for continued innovation in this field.
