The RECIF project is part of the process to improve our ecosystem in the department of the Channel area and better manage our marine resources.

The project has several objectives in order to adress these issues:

  • Enhancing the use of marine resources and reusing by-products (empty shells)
  • Developing innovative building materials for artificial reefs
  • Deploying artificial reefs to improve the biodiversity and productivity of the marine ecosystem in the Channel.

The RECIF project was selected under the European Cross-border Cooperation Programme INTERREG IV A between France (Channel) - England, co-funded by the ERDF. It brings together 8 French and British partners and the project is backed by the Regional Authorities in Lower Normandy.
