Assessing the effectiveness of coastal management education

This research study by the Australian Research Institute in Education for Sustainability (ARIES) at Macquarie University considered the current effectiveness of various coastal management education approaches through a review of case studies and experiences throughout Australia, as well as selected international locations. The reviews were combined with a synthesis of literature on how education programs can most effectively promote not only awareness, but also participation and action to improve stewardship and management of the coast.
