This project aims to increase the sustainability and resilience of coral reef fisheries in Australia and overseas. This project expects to deliver solutions-oriented research that pioneers the first global assessment of coral reef fisheries sustainability, locates the most resilient reefs, and uses these as models to increase resilience in other locations. Expected outcomes include new knowledge, partnerships, and decision-support tools that provide benefits by: 1) leaving a global legacy of resilient coral reef fisheries, 2) generating national security benefits through increased engagement with and improved resource stewardship in neighbouring countries, and 3) enhancing Australia's research capacity by training 7 future research leaders.Read moreRead less
