Sustainability

The islands of Mauritius and Rodrigues were once covered in luxurious rainforests and palm savannah, and rich in endemic biodiversity. This idyllic state lasted until the first human settlers arrived in the 17th Century. Since then, both islands have undergone drastic and rapid changes in land use. The Forestry Service reports that as of 2014, only 2% of native forests remain in Mauritius. The Sustainable Land Management Project aims at supporting the efforts of Mauritius to achieve Land Degradation Neutrality is defined as “the state whereby the amount and quality of land resources, necessary to support ecosystem functions and services and enhance food security, remains stable or increases within specified temporal and spatial scales and ecosystems”.

Coral reefs are important for coastal livelihoods and contribute to food security. In Mauritius and Seychelles coral reefs are under severe stress and are affected by bleaching associated to the effects of climate change. The Adaptation Fund and UNDP are helping the Government of Mauritius to increase climate resilience by supporting coral reef restoration and installing artificial reefs.
