Abstract This study explored the environmental and socio-economic impacts of the mangrove rehabilitation project in Mobil, Dunggoan, Danao City, Cebu. It examined the demographic profile of residents, their perceptions and contributions to the project, and the effectiveness of project monitoring. In addition, the researchers conducted an actual measurement of the height and spread branches of the planted mangroves. The research employed descriptive method, utilizing surveys and direct measurements to assess the survival rate and growth of mangroves, as well as the distribution of marine life using quadrat
method. Findings indicate a significant survival rate of mangroves, with Rhizophora stylosa and Rhizophora apiculata being the predominant species. The project has notably enhanced shoreline protection, erosion prevention, aquatic habitat, water quality, and the aesthetic appeal of the cove. The
study underscored the necessity of implementing stricter monitoring, waste management, restoration projects, and community awareness programs to improve mangrove rehabilitation.
