Interview with Dr Richard Lilley, Director and Co-Founder, Project Seagrass 🌿🐠

Dr Richard Lilley has over a decade of experience of research into marine systems. He is passionate about education, particularly marine science communication and outdoor learning. His work focuses on the sustainable supply chain management of small-scale capture fisheries, particularly those linked to seagrass ecosystems.
Richard is particularly interested in the role of seagrass meadows in providing local food security and is currently working with an international team on a Seagrass Ecosystem Services Project across the Indo-Pacific Region with this focus (Thailand, Malaysia, Timor-Leste, Indonesia and the Philippines). His work in the UK and Europe is primarily focussed on identifying seagrass ecosystem restoration opportunities and developing local capacity to support this.
