Do you have experience with environmental education or community engagement? If so, consider applying to join our NSW Marine Estate Education Working Group.

We’re looking for members from local councils and environmental education organisations to join this working group in a voluntary capacity.

The established working group will use their experience, knowledge and networks to help us roll out marine estate education across NSW, in keeping with the NSW Marine Estate Education Strategy.

Come to our information session webinar to find out more:


Wed 10 April 2024
11am – 12pm

Registration essential via this link.

The working group will provide advice on how we can:

  • Support local governments with their own marine estate community education and engagement
  • Tap into existing engagement and education programs centred on the marine estate
  • Work together to create new marine estate education and engagement programs

For more detail on the Working Group, see the Marine Estate Education Working Group Terms of Reference.
