Marine forest coastal restoration: an underwater gardening socio-ecological plan
The ocean is now seriously degraded, with changes and losses in the structure, function and benefits of marine systems. There is a lack of holistic approaches and protocols to ocean adaptation and restoration at large scale. To promote biodiversity, ecosystem functioning, and to enhance carbon sequestration, OCEAN CITIZEN will implement and scale up an advanced regeneration program that joins ecological perspectives with societal commitment, providing clear economic benefits and improving resilience of the local communities. In the end, cooperation between science and citizens will support the successful recovery, adaptation and conservation of coastal marine ecosystems.
The project OCEAN CITIZEN is co-funded by the European Union, under Horizon Europe Research and Innovation programme under the grant agreement No. 101093910.
