OUR ASSOCIATE PARTNERS
A number of other organisations bring expertise on science, policy and volunteer-experience to the project.
Capturing our Coast: An innovation in marine citizen science
From 2015-2018 the CoCoast project trained almost 3,000 members of the public nationwide to gather data to help us understand in more detail the species that live on our coasts.
LOOKING FORWARD
"We are incredibly impressed with the enthusiasm and contributions of our volunteer
community. Your skill and conservation capacity as a national community is hugely valued and
we don’t want to lose this. We intend to build on our collective successes to forge ahead
with a second phase of this project, which for purposes here, we refer to as ‘CoCoast 2’. We
hope you will continue to work with us and that your experience so far has been positive
…"Dr Jane Delany, CoCoast Principle Investigator, Newcastle University
