Hughes's Fellowship has enormous capacity to provide economic, cultural, environmental and social benefits for Australia. The coral reefs of Australia, particularly the Great Barrier Reef, Ningaloo Reef, and Lord Howe Island World Heritage Area are Australian national icons, of great economic, social, and aesthetic value to this country. Hughes and his collaborators in a newly-created ARC Centre of Excellence will be the premier providers of the scientific expertise that underpins the management of Australian reefs, which is vital for the sustainable use of biodiversity goods and services (e.g. by the tourist industry, fisheries, and recreational users).

休斯奖学金有巨大的能力为澳大利亚提供经济、文化、环境和社会福利。澳大利亚的珊瑚礁，特别是大堡礁、宁格鲁礁和豪勋爵岛世界遗产区是澳大利亚的国家象征，对这个国家具有巨大的经济、社会和美学价值。休斯和他的合作者在一个新成立的ARC卓越中心将成为科学专业知识的主要提供者，支持澳大利亚珊瑚礁的管理，这是至关重要的生物多样性产品和服务的可持续利用（例如旅游业，渔业和娱乐用户）。
