Mapping restoration opportunity areas and potential, and building capacities on restoration techniques for of key habitats (mangrove, seagrass and coral reefs) critically for sustainable fisheries

The Regional Organization for the Conservation of the Environment of the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden has issued an award notice for contract PERSGA-2240-1-CS-INDVS. This initiative focuses on mapping restoration opportunity areas and assessing the potential for rehabilitating key marine habitats, specifically mangroves, seagrass, and coral reefs. These ecosystems are identified as critically important for supporting sustainable fisheries within the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden regions. In addition to the mapping efforts, the project aims to build technical capacities regarding restoration techniques for these vital habitats. The work is designated to be performed in the Republic of Yemen, reflecting a targeted effort to enhance environmental conservation and sustainable resource management in the area.
