A MANGROVE planting program is scheduled for parts of the Labasa River in the hope of reducing the effects of climate change in the area.
Organised by the Department of Environment under the Building Resilience Project, the initiative will start next month in conjunction with World Environment Day.
Senior environment officer northern Senimili Nakora said the project's goal was to reduce the vulnerability of targeted communities to the impact of climate change through a strengthened and co-ordinated approach within the national climate change policy and strategy framework.
