💼 What the programme involves
At TrapaingSangke, we are working to transform a local fishing community to become an eco-tourism site by helping them making bridges for tourist to explore the area inside mangrove forest, planting mangroves to protect the sea level rise for the villages and saving fish in the fish production season, teaching basic English for local children, and participate with local people in collecting and planting mangroves seeds. In 2016, CYA is planning to establish CYA English classroom for the community to provide a free English course for kids.
