Global Mangrove Watch Mentored Course – Virtual, 2022

From June 21 – July 15, 2022, the Reef Resilience Network, in partnership with Global Mangrove Watch partners, hosted a mentored online course on Global Mangrove Watch. The course had 153 participants from 94 countries and territories. The mentored course combined 3 self-paced lessons, two live webinars, and discussions with other course participants and mentors in weekly forums. Each of the webinars hosted presentations by Global Mangrove Watch experts.

The course enabled participants to confidently navigate the Global Mangrove Watch (GMW) platform and learn how to utilize its data and tools in support of the effective management of mangroves. Course lessons included: Introduction to Global Mangrove Watch, Remote Sensing of Mangroves, and Mangrove Blue Carbon. Learn more about the self-paced course.
