Three years ago the coral reef surrounding Mnemba Island in Zanzibar , Tanzania , was dying.
It was under threat from climate change, overfishing and other human activity.
Communities on the small island have embraced a conservation project which has managed to restore some of what has been lost.
Underwater nurseries were created using steel-mesh tables, where coral fragments are grown to be replanted.
Zanzibar government is looking to expand its restoration project to other areas under threat.
The Mnemba project has seen positive changes in the conservation efforts.
The relationship between the sea and coral is crucial for ocean health, say those involved.
The government has identified 14 areas with undamaged reefs and others with damaged corals.
