What an incredible week at #ICRS2026. From talks, to plenaries, workshops, and lunches, the CRC was well represented!

We made dozens of new connections, learned so many new things, and enjoyed every second of it. What stood out to us was that the coral restoration and the practice of restoration was a big part of the conversation.

It was so amazing to see how many people are engaged with restoration methods, practice, and design in our broader coral community. With reefs around the world under threat, restoration today looks less like isolated projects and more like a global community of practitioners adapting in real time, sharing what works and what doesn’t. Resilient reefs are turning into living complex laboratories and restoration is about understanding which reefs still have a future and giving them every chance to reach it…together! 💪💙

We are excited to continue the conversation at Reef Futures in December in Mexico!

Day one of #ICRS2026 is in the books! We loved getting to connect with so many individuals and hear so many incredible talks.

Thank you to all who joined our Pacific Islands Regional Group for lunch. It was incredibly inspiring to see so many faces in the room. Our takeaway was that Regional collaboration is WANTED and IMPERATIVE! People want to connect with those working in the same region, they want to share what works and what doesn’t, and they want to work closely together to save their reefs. This reaffirms our goals for bolstering regional groups at the CRC and inspires us to push forward.

Day two is a busy day for us, check out our stories to see where the action will be! Join us there, ask us questions, and get involved!
