Community Action Platform for Environment and Development (CAPED)

The Community Action Platform on Environment and Development (CAPED) is a community-based organisation with interventions in the rural Gambia. Focusing on agriculture, environment and community development, CAPED has planted over three million Mangrove Propagules along the Bintang Bolong. The organisation’s objective is to restore the damaged ecosystem, fight climate change, increase the availability of fish, provide a safe habitat for marine life, protect the vulnerable coastline from wild storms and erosion, and stop salt intrusion into rice fields.
