We welcome everyone who works in various ways with nature conservation, management and restoration of the marine environment at local, regional, national and international levels to the conference. We will present our LIFE Lophelia project and how we have developed a method for restoring cold-water corals. Researchers from three other marine restoration projects in Europe will also talk about their projects, namely REDRESS, LIFE ECOREST och LIFE DREAM.
By boat we will visit the reef sites and look at corals and artificial reefs using an ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicle). There will also be a workshop on restoration and how we, together as researchers and managers, can contribute to the European restoration goals for 2030 and 2050? The conference will be held in English, it is free, but participants pay for their own travel and accommodation. Registration starts at the end of April – LIFE Lophelia – slutkonferens| Länsstyrelsen Västra Götaland
