Meet the Sea Change Australia Experts Network
Our experts include internationally recognised climate and fisheries researchers, state and federal government managers, Indigenous Knowledge holders, industry leaders, and even psychologists.
In this project, ‘experts’ are not just the people formally trained in science, but also people who have demonstrated experience in the seafood sector and/or key knowledge of local places, circumstances and practices.
