During the days of July 4th, 18th, 19th, and 20th, PRIO volunteers and the SEAREST-BC project team from the Center for Environmental and Marine Studies at the University of Aveiro (CESAM-UA) joined forces to undertake the important task of aiding in the restoration of seagrass meadows in the Ria de Aveiro.
In addition to preserving biodiversity, the mission aimed to offset the impact of human activity in the region through the concept of “blue carbon.”
This collaboration highlights the value of teamwork and joint efforts for the conservation of the marine environment and coastal areas, emphasizing the importance of active participation by all in the pursuit of sustainable solutions for the protection of our natural resources.
