Solent Seascape Project earns UN Decade Action status
The Solent Seascape Project, the UK's first seascape-scale marine restoration initiative, has been recognised as an official United Nations Decade Action, contributing to global efforts to protect and restore marine biodiversity. This project focuses on restoring key habitats like salt marshes, seagrass beds, oyster reefs, and seabird sites across the Solent, while also engaging local communities in the process. The initiative, supported by ten influential organisations, aims to enhance coastal resilience, combat climate change, and improve water quality. Its inclusion in the UN Decade of Ocean Science underscores its international significance and commitment to cutting-edge marine restoration. (
