Reefy: Rewilding the Oceans to Protect the Land

We are a social enterprise, committed to nature and our mission, and aiming to establish a self-funding organization. That way, the most sustainable positive impact can be achieved by establishing and nurturing complete marine ecosystems.

 

By rebuilding reefs we create natural barriers that act as a breakwater, protecting the coastline and forming the foundation of a rich marine ecosystem. This protects and supports vulnerable communities, increases biodiversity, and creates a tranquil area for aquatic vegetation like seagrass that can store x35 times faster CO2 than a tropical forest.

 

We have done experiments with some of the best experts in their field, from testing our reefs against hurricane waves to testing new materials in the biggest coral reef tank in Europe. To go to the next step, we need your support.

 

Currently, we are supporting two local organizations, one in Gili Air, Indonesia, and another one in Puerto Morelos, Mexico. The Mexico project focuses together with the national university on monitoring different materials and textures to boost reef recovery. In Indonesia, the Coral Catch project works with a full local female team to restore nature, where we do research on seagrass and coral reef restoration. Both teams are led by amazing scientists and pioneering women in the biology world. This fundraising supports the ongoing local activities of monitoring reef restoration and innovative materials and textures for marine growth.
