Restore
Protect marine, coastal and freshwater ecosystems through measurable field interventions.
A technology-driven public-benefit initiative
Where environmental science becomes local action.
Cororeef connects restoration, robotics, software and community networks to build measurable ecological and social impact across Myanmar and, over time, Southeast Asia.
A living system for public benefit
A coral reef is resilient because thousands of relationships work together. Cororeef uses the same idea: science, technology, fieldwork, education and community service should reinforce one another rather than operate in isolated silos. We are building the institutional foundation carefully, with evidence and public benefit ahead of rhetoric.

Founder
Youth-led, locally grounded
AILINXIAO QIU founded Cororeef after living and studying in Myanmar and seeing environmental damage, community needs and technical opportunity intersect. The initiative begins with listening: learning from local institutions, then building practical systems around the needs they identify.
Build with us
A reef grows through connection.
Researchers, community partners, technologists, advisors and volunteers can help shape Cororeef responsibly from the beginning.
