About the Project
The Marine Resilience Initiative (MARIN) Tobago pilot project is an 18-month pilot project carried out by the Institute of Marine Affairs with support from the bp Trinidad and Tobago (BPTT). During this period, MARIN Tobago seeks to determine the feasibility of coral and seagrass rehabilitation strategies given their current ecological state, existing disturbances and management practices. For this, IMA will explore suitable methodologies for seagrass and coral reef restoration in Tobago; one that maintains biodiversity and continues to support livelihoods. The second objective is to sensitize on the importance of coral reef and seagrass restoration efforts and garner community support for sustainable restoration and active management efforts.
