T.A.L.A.M.O.N.E. is a marine conservation and community engagement project focused on protecting Posidonia oceanica meadows in Talamone Bay, a biodiversity hotspot on the southern Tuscan coast. The project combines scientific research with education and public outreach to assess ecosystem health and raise awareness of the ecological and economic value of seagrass habitats.

Key activities include field sampling, ecological monitoring, stakeholder interviews, educational programs in schools, summer camps, and the creation of a local code of conduct for sustainable coastal use. The initiative aims to foster a well-informed, active local network committed to long-term marine stewardship.

The project, led by Bioscience Research Center (BsRC), will run from June 2025 to December 2026 in the Talamone Bay, in the Province of Grosseto.
