ReMeMaRe 2026 - Call for presentation and poster abstracts

We invite the submission of abstracts for both posters and presentations that align with any of this year’s themes, including the overarching crosscutting topics such as source-to-sea or seascape restoration. We have  a selection of  individual  themes which will be explored across four focus habitats: seagrass, saltmarsh, native oysters, and kelp.

Interwoven throughout this year’s conference is a strong emphasis on the use of the arts as a communication tool—and the role creative practice can play in restoration projects, especially in raising awareness and engaging coastal communities.

You can find further details about the conference and this year's themes on the dedicated ReMeMaRe conference webpage.
