Coral Restoration Consortium

building community, rebuilding reefs

Welcome to the Consortium!

We are the community of practice for reef restoration.

 

We serve corals and the people that depend on them most closely.

 

Our primary audience is restoration practitioners in reef-rich, low-income nations.​

 

We do not advocate for one single method of restoration - but a better toolbox, shared resources, and a good planning framework.

A message from our Executive Director

“Coral reefs are on the brink of extinction due to climate change and other threats. Saving them requires a united, powerful community. Building, strengthening, and empowering that community is what we do.”
