On the 14th of June, a workshop on the restoration of dune systems, seagrass meadows, and salt marsh habitats of the Ria de Aveiro was held at ECOMARE. This event was co-organised by the A-AAGORA, RESTORE4Cs, LIFE, REWRITE, and LIFE SeagrassRiaWild projects.
The workshop featured the participation of 25 key stakeholders from the region, including representatives from public sector administration, municipalities, non-governmental organisations, businesses, and educational and vocational training institutions. All participants were invited to share their knowledge about the most characteristic species of the coastal habitats of the Ria de Aveiro, in order to consider restoration actions.
This initiative employed the Living Lab methodology, which focuses on the active participation of stakeholders in the process of coastal ecosystem restoration, allowing solutions to be co-developed to meet real needs and contributions.
