Abstract

[Extract] In this inaugural edition, the SELTMP team has synthesized available data to recreate a 2011 snapshot of the social and economic dimension of the Great Barrier Reef and its catchments. We include Traditional Owners, the marine tourism industry, the commercial fishing industry, recreational users and coastal communities. We also include ports and shipping, catchment industries and mining. Our aim is to enable readers to feel that – to a greater extent - they understand the human dimension of the region and the capacity to undergo change. We hope that this knowledge provides policy makers and leaders with a little more confidence to make decisions – whether they be decisions about resource protection or better ways to manage an industry or a small scale enterprise.
