PROJECT NEWS ✨ Yaf Keru Impacts
PROJECT NEWS ✨ Yaf Keru Impacts: a year rich in progress for the restoration of degraded coral reefs in Indonesia!
Thanks to your support, the Yaf Keru Impacts project, led by Mickael Racine and the Planète Mer association, is making remarkable progress in Raja Ampat. 🐠
➡️ Their aim? To show that restoration can restore coral cover and an abundance and diversity of fish.
🔬 3 contexts, 3 different situations to measure the impact of restoration
The project is based on a comparison of 3 conditions at key sites:
A context degraded by dynamite fishing
An intact context
A selection of reefs at different stages of restoration
👉 Highlights of this first year :
Data collection: Rigorous monitoring (growth measurement and counting) along standardised dive routes, repeated several times to observe the evolution of the sites over time.
Essential collaboration with local communities: Partnership with local researchers and members of the local community to ensure the sustainability and co-construction of the project with citizens.
Analysis of results: The initial results are very promising. As early as 6 months ago, we saw a significant return of coral and fish, proving the direct link between the ecological state of the reefs and the abundance of fish.
Disseminating the results: Fête de la science, seminars, and the creation of a science popularisation kit to make these advances accessible to everyone.
🙌 An impact that goes beyond science:
This project does more than just restore coral reefs: it supports local communities by guaranteeing them food security and economic prosperity.
🙏 These advances are possible thanks to YOU. Your donations advance research, protect our planet and support forward-looking projects.
Thank you for working with us to protect these unique ecosystems.

After a year of European collaboration as part of the SOS – Sharing Ocean Science project, our report has finally been validated ➡️ the opportunity to celebrate the end of this great adventure! 🙌
Relive with us the Ocean Impact Forum, the key event that marked the conclusion of this unique collaboration between businesses, scientists and NGOs. A high point for sharing ideas, innovations and solutions for preserving our Ocean. 💡
Our aim with this project? To encourage dialogue between the worlds of business and science to transform practices towards a sustainable model. Using collective intelligence and collaborative workshops, we co-created concrete solutions to meet the challenges facing the Ocean, from plastic pollution to overfishing and climate disruption.
👉 At Pure Ocean, we’re proud to have facilitated this meeting between two often separate worlds. It is by working hand in hand that we will build a more respectful and sustainable future for our ocean.
🔜 See you soon for new initiatives!

Thanks to your support, significant advances have been made by the Regen Ocean Farms project, on the coastlines of north-east Brazil.
🔬 Researchers at the service of the ecosystem:
In September, scientists Dr. Mutue T. Fujii and Dr. Nair S. Yokoya, from the São Paulo Environmental Research Institute, visited the Corumbau marine protected area (Resex Corumbau). They trained artisanal fishermen in the taxonomic identification of algae and in ecological monitoring methodologies. These tools will enable sustainable exploitation of algal resources, while increasing the services provided by marine ecosystems.
🤝 A local dynamic at the heart of the project:
Ten fishing families are currently involved in growing Hypnea pseudomusciformis, a seaweed with remarkable ecological and biotechnological properties. It is a seaweed rich in active molecules for human and animal health and nutrition, with antibacterial, anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and anti-cancer properties. This activity supports the local economy while reinforcing traditional fishing practices with low environmental impact.
🎯 A project with multiple objectives :
Regen Ocean Farms aims to structure a small-scale seaweed farming industry to restore coastal ecosystems, support local economic development and help combat climate change and plastic pollution.




In 2025, let’s celebrate the people who make the ocean’s heart beat ✨
