On 18 and 19 November 2025, the official monitoring visit of the SEAFOREST project took place on La Maddalena Island, organized by the project consortium in collaboration with the Parco Nazionale dell’Arcipelago di La Maddalena, with the participation of CINEA Project Advisor Hana Mandelikova and the external monitors appointed by CINEA, Carlo Ponzio (technical) and Veronika Soproska (financial). The visit was structured over two days: the first day, held at the Park Centre, focused on technical and administrative meetings, during which project progress, achieved results, issues raised during the previous visit, and financial matters were discussed, with the aim of planning the project closure and preparing the Final Report; the second day was entirely field-based, visiting the project intervention areas in the archipelago, with a particular focus on Porto Madonna, where the restoration of Posidonia oceanica habitats and the installation of an eco-friendly mooring system designed to reduce anchoring impacts on the seabed were presented. The visit allowed CINEA to directly assess the effectiveness of the techniques applied, the status of the installations, and the results achieved, while discussing the working methodologies, monitoring criteria, and prospects for maintaining and replicating the interventions in other marine protected areas. This monitoring visit represented a crucial step in the SEAFOREST project, enabling the team to address the remaining technical and administrative aspects and prepare for the project closure with full awareness of the objectives achieved and the challenges ahead.
