Webinar: "FRDC 2022-027 Targeting behavioural change in fisheries and aquaculture"

People interact with their environment through their behaviour. Therefore, promoting sustainable natural resource management, stewardship behaviours, safety at sea, or animal welfare, requires efforts to maintain certain behaviours and change others.

Whilst behaviour change interventions offer potential as a useful management tool, they are complex to design, test, and implement - resultingly, research and examples of effective behaviour change interventions in fisheries and aquaculture have been limited to date. The Targeting behavioural change in fisheries and aquaculture project has collated relevant behaviour change interventions research in the context of Australian fisheries and aquaculture.

Join the project webinar on Thursday 26^th September 15:30-16:15 (AEST) to learn about

• the basic theory of behaviour change interventions
• examples of behaviour change intervention approaches
• examples of opportunities for applying behaviour change interventions in the fisheries and aquaculture context
• recommendations for further focused research on behaviour change interventions for could supporting more desired outcomes in Australian fisheries and aquaculture.
