It expanded through the following year while maintaining its focus on physical measures. At the same time, the Wetlands International Indonesia field team worked to build further capacity among community groups in nine villages along the Demak coast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The project\u2019s Coastal Field School focused on building local capacity through knowledge of the natural system, mixed mangrove aquaculture, and alternative livelihoods. This program yielded a major achievement in 2017, when eleven community groups signed on to Bio-rights contracts, representing three hundred villagers. Supported by funding associated with the contracts, the communities implemented sustainable aquaculture and livelihood revitalization measures while pursuing mangrove restoration along the coast and rivers. All parties agreed to convert some aquaculture ponds back to mangroves to prevent further erosion, a prospect which had previously been unpopular. This demonstrated a new engagement with coastal restoration and aquaculture revitalization and signaled commitment to cocreating a sustainable future. The agreement helped to align the separate initiatives. Two distinct physical interventions\u2014the permeable structures and the mixed mangrove aquaculture ponds\u2014were linked by a social finance mechanism. The integration represented a major step forward for Building<br>with Nature. In this roundtable, Demak community members and leaders reflect on their changing landscapes and the specific contribution of Building with Nature to sustainable economic development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ecoshape.org\/app\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/12\/mangrove-removal-for-aquaculture-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"Mangrove removal for aquaculture and groundwater extraction results in erosion and subsidence.\" class=\"wp-image-13525\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ecoshape.org\/app\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/12\/mangrove-removal-for-aquaculture-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ecoshape.org\/app\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/12\/mangrove-removal-for-aquaculture-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.ecoshape.org\/app\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/12\/mangrove-removal-for-aquaculture-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.ecoshape.org\/app\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/12\/mangrove-removal-for-aquaculture-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.ecoshape.org\/app\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/12\/mangrove-removal-for-aquaculture-1200x900.jpeg 1200w, https:\/\/www.ecoshape.org\/app\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/12\/mangrove-removal-for-aquaculture.jpeg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Mangrove removal for aquaculture and groundwater extraction results in erosion and subsidence.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-bottom is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66%\">\n<p><strong>\u201cI grew up in the 1960s, when the sea was more than a mile away.
