Empowering Odisha's Coastlines through nature-based solutions
A documentary capturing OPSA’s decade-long, community-led mangrove and coastal conservation efforts at the Devi River Mouth, Odisha, directed & documented by acclaimed climate change filmmaker Snehasis Das.

250,000+ mangroves restored & facilitated across last-mile, climate-vulnerable coastal and estuarine communities of Odisha.

Critical coastal habitats protected for sea turtles, birds, and wetland biodiversity through community stewardship.

Community leaders, fishers, women, and youth from marginalized coastal communities actively engaged in conservation action.

Ecosystem-based climate solutions implemented to strengthen resilience in high-risk and vulnerable coastal zones.

150,000+ students and youth from last-mile coastal schools reached through climate education and leadership programs.








CSR-ready, scalable programs in mangrove restoration, coastal resilience, biodiversity conservation, and climate education aligned with SDGs and ESG goals.
Community-led implementation, local stewardship, transparent monitoring, and long-term ecosystem protection.

Our mission is to empower coastal communities in Odisha and across India to restore and safeguard natural ecosystems—mangroves, wetlands, dunes, and palms—as living buffers that protect against sea-level rise, coastal erosion, saline intrusion, and climate-driven disasters, while also strengthening last - mile vulnerable livelihoods and resilience.
Our vision to build a climate-resilient India where empowered communities lead the conservation and restoration of natural ecosystems, ensuring protection of coastlines, biodiversity, and generations to come.










Preserving Mother Earth is not just our mission—it’s our responsibility. 🌱
