Fundación Cleanwave | #Ciencia Marina
Aligned with the EU Mission "Restore our Ocean and Waters," the Portocolom Bay marine restoration project emerges as a pivotal initiative to protect and restore marine ecosystems. With a 2030 target, this mission aims to safeguard the health of oceans and waters through research, innovation, citizen engagement, and blue investments, playing a vital role in achieving climate neutrality and restoring nature.
The Portocolom Bay project works for integrating cutting-edge technology assets to incorporate natural capital accounting into its long-term roadmap, aligning with the Mission's objectives. Leveraging remote sensing, machine learning, AI, and IoT, the project enhances operational efficiency and effectiveness in restoring marine habitats. By utilizing these technologies, the project aims to establish a robust framework for natural capital accounting, quantifying the ecological benefits generated by marine restoration efforts.
Furthermore, the project's engagement aligns with the Mission's cross-cutting enabling actions, fostering broad public mobilization and engagement. By encouraging Member States, regions, and stakeholders to endorse the Charter and pledge actions, the project catalyzes successful implementation and supports regional cooperation in achieving Mission objectives.
As a designated "lighthouse" in the Mediterranean Sea basin, the Portocolom Bay project serves as a pilot site to demonstrate, develop, and deploy Mission activities across EU seas. Through its innovative approach and ambitious vision, the project contributes to the Mission's overarching goal of restoring ocean and water health for future generations.
In endorsing the Mission Charter, the Portocolom Bay project underscores its commitment to advancing the EU Mission to Restore Ocean and Waters, contributing to the collective effort to protect and restore marine ecosystems and promote sustainability.
