The Lanka Mangrove Museum was built as a key component of the Sri Lanka Mangrove Conservation Project. The state-of-the-art facility adjacent to the headquarters of our partner organization is the first of its kind in the world. It serves to educate locals and visiting ecotourists alike about the ecological and economic importance of mangroves, and introduce thousands of guests to our work to conserve and restore mangrove ecosystems in in Sri Lanka. It opened on July 26, 2016, International Mangrove Day, in a ceremony attended by Sri Lankan president Maithripala Sirisena and other dignitaries.
