Be a coastal change‐maker!
25th January, 2021
Perth NRM and CSBP have teamed up to create the CSBP Coastal Connections Challenge, a coastal education and action program for people aged between 12-18 in the Southern Metro region. We're looking for organisations to sign up teams now.
Do you know a young person who loves the beach and wants to make a difference on our coasts? Try the CSBP Coastal Connections Challenge!
We’re looking for teams of young people to come together and identify coastal conservation issues and develop real‐world project and address these issues with the support of their peers, scientists, artists, conservationists, and educators.
The CSBP Coastal Connections Challenge starts with a FREE two‐day event to raise awareness and empower teams of young people to take real action on coastal issues, with the opportunity to design, deliver and showcase a practical project by June.
