The MBNEP plays a pivotal role in advancing collective impact along Alabama's vibrant coast. At MBNEP, our mission is clear: to empower communities with essential tools that integrate environmental protection into their development strategies. Here's how we achieve this goal:
- Creating Economic Incentives: We develop incentives and decision-support tools to foster the growth of coastal economies, ensuring sustainable development.
- Enhancing Regulatory Frameworks: We improve regulatory environments to ensure the success of restoration investments, safeguarding our natural resources for future generations.
- Promoting Best Practices: We provide ongoing tools and resources to continuously improve environmental management practices, driving innovation and efficiency.
- Building a Scientific Network: We establish a network of volunteer scientists who work alongside resource managers to monitor and protect our coastal environment.
