World Seagrass Association

The World Seagrass Association (WSA) is an international organization dedicated to the study, conservation, and sustainable management of seagrass ecosystems—rich underwater habitats vital for marine life, carbon storage, and coastal protection. It brings together scientists, policymakers, and conservation groups to share research, develop strategies, and promote awareness about preserving these important underwater meadows. By fostering collaboration worldwide, WSA aims to protect seagrasses from threats like pollution, climate change, and coastal development, ensuring healthy oceans and future resilience for marine biodiversity and people who depend on these ecosystems.
