Bluefin Tuna. Ecology at Risk

The project proposes a regenerative strategy to protect bluefin tuna, an endangered species, by restoring algae forest habitats. Through research conducted in the Mediterranean and globally, the project denounces unsustainable industrial practices and legal injustices that threaten marine biodiversity. Combining ecological design with critical studies on property, common goods, and traditional fishing communities, the project presents a future of coexistence in which marine environments are not exploited as factories, but restored as resilient ecosystems capable of sustaining both species and communities.
