The Life SEPOSSO project, supported by the European Commission, aims to improve the Italian Governance of Posidonia oceanica transplants, a priority marine habitat 1120 * sensu Habitat Directive (1992 / 43 / EEC), performed to compensate for damage caused by coastal works and infrastructures. The project makes use of the collaboration of numerous stakeholders with which to design and apply good practices and innovative software tools, which will increase the effectiveness of planning and control of transplantation activities. This will contribute to the implementation of European environmental legislation (EIA-2014/52 / EU and MSP-2014/89 / EU) and raise awareness on the importance and respect of the prairies of P. oceanica and marine sites of the Natura 2000 network.
