Let’s fight together for coral reefs!

The official website of the

European Chapter

of the

International Coral Reef Society (ICRS)

Our mission

The broad purpose of the Chapter is to pursue within Europe, and among reef scientists based in or visiting Europe, the Missions and Aims of the International Coral Reef Society (ICRS). A particular aim will be to hold and promote at four-year intervals further European Coral Reef Symposia. European Meetings of ICRS have been held frequently since the formation of the Society, but have occasionally lapsed due to the lack of any organization tasked with organizing it. The most recent ECRS was held in Oxford, UK in 2018; the next ECRS is being planned for 2024. In addition, the Chapter will prioritize networking and collaboration among reef scientists based in Europe, and among students studying at European Institutions.
