As we combat climate change, our biggest weapon is adaptation! Van Oord relocated over 71,000 coral colonies, marking the largest coral relocation in the Indian Ocean to date!
Partnering with local diving schools, they've carefully moved these coral colonies using hand tools to ensure minimal impact. At the Maldives project, coastal protection and preserving biodiversity goes hand in hand.
By protecting marine and coastal ecosystems, Van Oord proudly contributes to #SDG13 and #SDG14 - Climate action and life below water
Balancing construction with conservation, the Addu City project is an example of how we can adapt to climate change while promoting economic growth and providing security to local communities.
Leading the way in climate change adaptation, Van Oord has achieved a significant milestone with the largest coral relocation in the Indian Ocean, protecting both biodiversity and livelihoods
