The REEFhabilitation Experience
The REEFhabilitation Portal Database is an open-access website for coral reef restoration practitioners to collect, visualize, and share their restoration monitoring data.
By enabling better tracking of coral reef restoration efforts, the REEFhabilitation Portal Database supports restoration practitioners – including resource managers, scientists, tourism operators, and nonprofit organizations – to understand and make decisions about their restoration projects. It also supports greater knowledge exchange across the global coral reef restoration community.

Give your divers the REEFhabilitation Experience
Just like you, many of the divers who come to your establishment are passionate about the ocean. They’ve come to marvel at coral reefs, among the most diverse ecosystems on the planet. And they want to help.
If you already have a nursery of your own or through a partner, then you can start using the Portal right away to make your daily work easier. Using the educational videos and materials on the Portal, participants can quickly come up to speed, start collecting data for you, and then they can enter it on the portal themselves.
You save time and money on monitoring, your dive participants get to help conserve corals, and the Portal turns your center’s data into meaningful information.
Watch the tutorial and enroll your project/site.

Where can I have a REEFhabilitation Experience?
While enjoying snorkeling or diving, you will learn about coral restoration and visit coral nurseries or reef restoration sites. Your involvement supports coral reef restoration, as REEFhabilitation proceeds directly help local organizations that manage coral nurseries and lead restoration efforts. Together, we can do our part to help create healthier, more resilient reefs.
