Who do we work with?
Many of our projects require us to work closely with a variety of stakeholders including scientists, Queensland Parks and Wildlife, NQ Dry Tropics, James Cook University, local, state and federal governments, Townsville City Council, and local Magnetic Island groups that include Arcadia Coastcare, Zero Waste Magentic Island, Magnetic Island Community Development Association (MICDA), Magnetic Island Resident and Ratepayers Association (MIRRA) and Tourism Magnetic Island (TMI).
We work on a number of ongoing projects that include the management of Bolger Bay Conservation Park, consultation regarding the Port of Townsville expansion, the Picnic Bay Water Recycling Project plus many more.
We are also very proud of our previous achievements, that have included a number of major projects around Magnetic Island, including the Nelly Bay Habitat Reserve, the 'Carbon Cuts' Film Competition, the Energy-Saving Field Day, the Low-Carbon Interbay Challenge, and the Anti-Plastic Bag Campaign. |
