	Home / MTSRF Research / Theme 4 - Sustainable Use and Management / Program 8 - Sustainable Use (Great Barrier Reef) / Project 4.8.8 Project 4.8.8 - Communication, community engagement and enhanced delivery for Great Barrier Reef projects Project Leader: Dr Colin Simpfendorfer, James Cook University The Projects conducted in Program 8 have a strong interplay with community engagement to ensure the successful conduct and delivery of the research. In addition, they have a need to be conducted in the context of an engagement system like that developed for the CRC Reef’s Fishing and Fisheries Team. The previous system involved a communications officer to facilitate researcher engagement with industry, public and indigenous sectors, and to coordinate communications between researchers and stakeholders. Objectives for Project 4.8.8 in 2006/2007 are to: Coordinate communication activities and products to enhance the delivery of research activities and findings of Program 8; and Develop linkages with other communication activities within the MTSRF Program.
