How can communities sustainably manage coral reefs?

该项目与国家研究优先事项：一个环境可持续发展的澳大利亚有关。主要成果将包括： -更好地了解珊瑚礁最有效的共同管理安排； -评估澳大利亚的共同管理模式是否具有与长期成功相关的设计原则；以及 -对共同管理可能成为有效管理选择的社会经济环境的新见解。 这些成果将通过加强共同管理机构的能力，促进澳大利亚生物多样性的可持续利用。该项目还将通过为一名博士生和一名优等生提供研究资金来促进澳大利亚的研究能力。

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.
