2nd Queensland Coastal Conference
The second Queensland Coastal Conference was held on the Gold
Coast from 13-15 May, 2009 and the Queensland Coastal Councils
Forum on 12 May 2009.
After the resounding success of the inaugural Queensland Coastal
Conference in 2007, the 2009 'Waves of Change' Queensland Coastal
Conference was an opportunity to broaden the understanding of
how management and planning of the Queensland coast is evolving.
The Queensland Coastal Conference 2009 was not just about learning
of new developments in natural resource management, but also
a balanced discussion of practical, on-ground coastal management
and the policies and programs that inform coastal zone management
in Queensland.
The 2009 conference location also provided a fantastic opportunity
to experience one of Queensland's most iconic coastlines. The
Gold Coast is home to golden surf beaches, fine dining restaurants
and theme parks, which provides an exciting backdrop to the
2009 Queensland Coastal Conference and associated social program
and field trips.
The 2009 Conference program featured a number of outstanding
speakers, several concurrent sessions, workshops and poster
presentations. It attracted over 250 delegates from Queensland
and beyond and provided a wonderful opportunity to meet and
extend contacts.
Delegates included Commonwealth, State and Local Governments,
Natural Resource Management regional bodies, leading research
and education organisations, coastal and marine industries,
coastal and marine consultants, managers, planners and engineers,
NGOs, user groups, indigenous groups and many other community
organisations.
