Ongoing Initiatives in Markopoulo
Our recent project in Markopoulo highlights the tangible impact of this collaboration. This project, part of the initial phase of our program, focuses on mapping and evaluating the effects of anchoring on Posidonia seagrass beds.
During our second visit to the region, members from HCMR (Hellenic Centre for Marine Research) and Aegean Rebreath employed advanced technology, including drones and underwater remotely operated vehicles, to document both healthy and damaged Posidonia meadows. These insights will be instrumental in developing targeted protection and restoration strategies.
Next Steps and Future Goals
The assessment phase will be completed with a third visit that includes underwater dives to collect more data. We are committed to presenting our findings to local authorities through a detailed report, which will inform ongoing conservation efforts.
Commitment to Environmental Impact
Through our partnership with Aegean Rebreath, Teleperformance in Greece aims to significantly reduce environmental impact, protect biodiversity, and promote energy conservation. This collaboration not only strives to safeguard the Posidonia meadows but also seeks to inspire and educate our audience on the importance of marine conservation.
