Marine and Coastal Hub Research overview 5: Partnerships for protected places (2025). National Environmental Science Program.
Overview
Collaborative research is needed to manage and care for protected places such as Australian Marine Parks, National Parks and Indigenous Protected Areas.
Traditional Owners, communities and governments need research strategies attuned to environmental, economic, cultural and social goals.
The Marine and Coastal Hub works with research users to design, conduct and apply research that brings tangible outcomes for marine protected places.
Hub projects deliver priority information, develop options for effective management and support Indigenous knowledge and science.
This two-page fact sheet outlines this research, including outcomes for research users and brief project examples.
