Funded Activity Summary

Understanding ecological sensibilities in recreational lifestyle sport. This project aims to understand environmental attitudes and behaviours that emerge through participation in recreational lifestyle sports. Linking the growth of lifestyle sports in Australia and the significance of oceans in humanities and social sciences research, the project will highlight how surfers and ocean swimmers develop relationships to, and produce knowledge about, Australian oceans and coasts. The project will consider everyday cultural practices relating to ethical consumption and will provide key insights for surfing and ocean swimming communities to enable them to make better choices about their attitudes and practices relating to sustainable oceans and coasts.
