This project is relevant to the National Research Priority: An Environmentally Sustainable Australia. Key outcomes will include: - a better understanding the most effective co-management arrangements for coral reefs; - an evaluation of whether Australia's co-management models have the design principles associated with long-term success; and - new insights into the socioeconomic environments under which co-management may be an effective management option. These outcomes will promote the sustainable use of Australia's biodiversity by strengthening the capacity of co-management institutions. This project will also promote Australia's research capacity by providing research funds for one PhD student and one Honours student.
