MAP held our first CBEMR field training in Mozambique this year, along with our largest-ever workshop in our 32-year history, held in Kenya. MAP expanded its virtual training series, connecting practitioners from El Salvador, Madagascar, and beyond. These sessions extend our reach to restorationists who cannot attend in-person workshops. Our follow-up visits in Kenya and Madagascar allowed us to measure progress, strengthen partnerships, and ensure training outcomes are translating into long-term, community-led restoration success. Our Global Mangrove News publication, now the world's longest-running mangrove-focused news digest, reaches more than 2,200 readers monthly, continuing to provide science-based updates to the international mangrove community. MAP's Coastal Education Program for youth was piloted in Belize, integrating mangrove ecology into local school curricula through teacher training and hands-on field learning. Our long-running Marvellous Mangroves program in the Cayman Islands continued to engage students through interactive lessons and field trips, reaching over 445 students and 11 schools in 2024. The Children's Mangrove Art Contest received 350 submissions from 34 countries, showcasing the creativity and passion of young artists inspired by mangrove conservation. Our outreach efforts reached new heights this year. The 10th Mangrove Photography Awards drew 2,554 entries from 74 countries and were featured by the BBC, CNN, The Guardian, and UNESCO, with more than 41,000 visitors viewing our Abu Dhabi exhibition as part of the Abu Dhabi Mangrove Initiative. MAP also released new films showcasing community-driven restoration. Return of the Mangroves continued its successful international festival run, winning multiple awards, while new productions in Kenya and Indonesia highlighted the power of collaboration through the Global Mangrove Alliance. Over 32 years since our founding, MAP remains rooted in its mission to conserve, manage, and restore the world's mangrove forests through science, training, and education. This year's growth in field impact, education, and storytelling reflects the continued strength of our partnerships and the shared commitment of our global network. 0 0 0 568647 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 4 0 1 4 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 7 7 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 X NWAFM PLLC 2067898484 PO Box 77033 Seattle WA 981770033 Nelson Hardigg Chief Operating Officer 21.8 0 X X 114620 0 0 Roger de Freitas Board Chair 1 0 X X 0 0 0 Sherry Manning Board Vice President 4 0 X X 0 0 0 Graham Andrews Board Secretary 1 0 X X 0 0 0 Roan Blacker Board Treasurer 1 0 X X X 0 0 0 John Cowan Board Treasurer 1 0 X X 0 0 0 Heidi Weiskel Member at Large 1 0 X 0 0 0 Delli Mireskandari Member at Large 1 0 X 0 0 0 114620 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1071261 0 1071261 142231 142231 0 0 142231 40 40 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1213532 142271 0 0 X 1250 1250 39391 39391 174251 123531 32075 18645 0 111227 43223 56828 11176 6245 6245 16826 7847 6973 2006 3660 3660 1488 1488 20070 14569 3671 1830 249338 226312 9906 13120 3614 3317 297 23034 19963 1374 1697 7870 1153 2824 3893 854 620 156 78 66893 66381 461 51 134 128 6 1709 1709 911 350 561 5971 5431 540 Taxes and Licenses 3530 3302 228 0 Bank and processing fees 5386 4274 994 118 743652 568647 122385 52620 194596 216995 205615 155655 51004 554716 37095 5300 488310 932666 41715 17566 60000 60000 2780 1406 104495 78972 X 219290 195499 164525 658195 383815 853694 488310 932666 X 469880 0 0 0 0 -1 X 0 0 0 X 138280 309087 676710 753270 1074861 2952208 138280 309087 676710 753270 1074861 2952208 110745 2841463 31 28 15 15 41 130 2952338 142331 0.96245 0.95025 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 Loan Accrued Interest 1406 1406 1 Europe (including Iceland and Greenland) 0 2 Program Services Education 110641 Central America and the Caribbean 0 1 Program Services Education 51245 East Asia and the Pacific 0 2 Program Services Education, , Executive leadership 115900 0 5 277786 Central America and the Caribbean Youth Education 32600 Wire Transfer 0 1 0 Photo contest award East Asia and the Pacific 3 550 Electronic Funds Transfer 0 Photo contest award Europe (including Iceland and Greenland) 6 1791 Electronic Funds Transfer 0 Photo contest award Middle East and North Africa 1 200 Electronic Funds Transfer 0 Photo contest award North America (including Canada and Mexico, but not the United States) 2 450 Electronic Funds Transfer 0 Photo contest award South America 2 500 Electronic Funds Transfer 0 Photo contest award South Asia 11 2900 Electronic Funds Transfer 0 Photo contest award Sub-Saharan Africa 1 200 Electronic Funds Transfer 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Schedule F, Part I, Line 2 We work closely with all grantees to ensure that expenses are allocated accordingly, and programs delivered.
