Addressing social and ecological constraints to expand marine restoration

该项目旨在通过增加社区和行业参与具有高社会经济效益的恢复做法，改善海洋生境恢复的社会和生态成果。通过了解和克服成功恢复工作的社会和生态障碍，该项目将产生关于人类和海洋社区如何共同努力快速恢复强大，多产的珊瑚礁栖息地的新知识。该项目的预期成果包括一个新的生态、多物种方法，以提高恢复复原力;以及一个制定政府政策的合作框架，以建立工业和社区对沿海生态系统恢复合作管理的支持。

This project aims to improve social and ecological outcomes of marine habitat restoration by increasing community and industry engagement in restoration practices with high socio-economic benefits. By understanding and overcoming social and ecological barriers to successful restoration efforts, this project will generate new knowledge on how communities – both human and marine – can work together to rapidly restore robust, productive reef habitats. Expected outcomes of this project include a new ecological, multi-species approach that boosts restoration resilience; and a collaborative framework for developing government policy that builds industry and community support for cooperative management of coastal ecosystem restoration.
