Reanimar Coral Reefs

An innovative way to add economic value for restoration actions within natural resources.

Reanimar Coral Reefs

Started in Porto de Galinhas in partnership with the AHPG (Hotels’ Association of Porto de Galinhas), we use a systemic and self-sustainable method for restoring natural resources. Focusing on 3 objectives:

Restore impacted coral reefs settings through advanced methods of coral production, growth and outplanting, and for gardening marine impacted areas. Consequently, improving the recovery of the natural charming and biological functionality of coral reef’s environment.

Environmental

Increase the profit of entire touristic chain throughout reconstitution actions. Creating attractions and friendly logistics (based on Blue Tourism); accelerating the interactions among social and economic stakeholders; and attracting more funding to enhance restoration programs.

Economic

Envolve a P&D de novas tecnologias voltadas para a reconstituição ambiental, visto que técnicas de aquicultura de corais e espécies (ou populações) nativas não estão totalmente desenvolvidas.

Scientific

Its implementation is defined in 3 phases

Phase 1

Achieve a reasonable scientific maturity for production of local coral species; prepare a custom-made restoration plan; characterize the environmental area to be restored; and select suitable site for coral outplanting.

Phase 2

The creation of tourist aquariums. The maturity improvement of coral husbandry and outplanting.

Phase 3

The creation of new tourist eco-attractions; the development of tourist-restoration-activities for training local workers; and the attraction of funders for the expansion of the restoration plan.
