Sea Country Guardians
Sea Country Guardians aims to foster stewardship and a community culture of caring for the Great Barrier Reef in Indigenous communities, particularly amongst young people.
It expands on the highly successful Reef Guardian Schools Program and is currently in its developmental phase, with implementation stages through 2010.
By using cultural knowledge linked to environmental knowledge, Sea Country Guardians will help children care for the Reef and connected ecosystems through creative activities.
The program will be led by communities to develop future community leaders and managers for their sea country and the Great Barrier Reef.
