Marion Gomes – Posea

Posea emerged from a dedication to marine conservation and a thesis on ecological restoration of marine ecosystems. Focusing on Posidonia meadows in the Mediterranean, crucial both ecologically and economically, this project addresses significant damage caused by boat anchors each summer. Collaborating with Andromède Océanologie, a Marseille-based organization specializing in marine ecosystem restoration, the project endeavors to mitigate these challenges. In 2023, Andromède planted 7,373 Posidonia fragments and plans to double this number. To improve efficiency, I analyzed their methods and proposed a new approach. Using bamboo and optimizing the process with simultaneous tasks, fragment assembly and preparation occur onboard while divers transplant them, doubling the restoration speed.
