Reef Revival Project employ Nature-Based Solution to rehabilitate and protect coral reefs along Pakistan’s coastline.
Unlike traditional artificial reef methods, which often introduce unnatural materials into the ocean, our approach emphasizes natural propagation techniques. We believe that anything introduced from land into the ocean is alien, akin to taking a fish out of water—it simply doesn’t thrive. Therefore, our solution focuses on enhancing coral growth in their natural habitat without introducing foreign materials. We also conduct workshops on coral propagation and rehabilitation, ocean literacy educating stakeholders on sustainable practices. Additionally, we remove ghost nets and marine debris, which enhances coral health and reduces stress on marine ecosystems. By leveraging the expertise of our team, which includes ocean scientists and certified divers, we are confident that our Nature-Based Solution creates lasting positive impacts on Pakistan’s marine environment.
