LIFE NatuReef aims to apply at demonstration level the best practices available to the restoration of native oyster and sabellariid reefs, seeding the native species in a rare non-urbanized coastal stretches of the northern Adriatic coasts: the Bevano river mouth (Ravenna municipality, Emilia-Romagna Region, Italy), which is a SAC and SPA under the EU Natura 2000 (IT4070009 - Ortazzo, Ortazzino, Foce del Torrente Bevano).
On the occasion of World Oceans Day 2026, LIFE NatuReef will take part in the public event scheduled for 8 June 2026 at Palazzo Rasponi dalle Teste in Ravenna.
The event will focus on the implementation of the EU Nature Restoration Regulation in the marine environment. LIFE NatuReef will participate with a poster on the protection of coastal dune habitats.
