PROJECT | Community Engagement Abrolhos Islands Project |
CLIENT | Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development (DPIRD) |
LOCATION | Abrolhos Islands (WA) |
TIMEFRAME | 2021 – 2022 |
agdots undertook a survey of the fishers operating within the Abrolhos and achieved the highest ever success rate of a survey within this cohort in their history (85%). This survey and the subsequent stakeholder consultation report led to the WA State Government announcing key changes to the Management of the Islands to support multi-functional industry development (Tourism, Fishing, and Aquaculture). This outcome enables the protection of the Island group and allows the in-situ fishing community to undertake sustainable and ‘light touch’ development.
