Join the Cause to Ensure Better Coastal Management

Queensland Coastal Conference is a non-profit event, and it needs the help and support of Queenslanders, Australians and everyone to achieve its goal of promoting vibrant ecosystems, sustainable usage of coastal resources, and healthy ecosystems. There are several ways for individuals to get involved, and you just have to find the one that works for you.

Whether you are an organisation or individual, coastal issues affect you directly or indirectly, and this is why you should get involved in the efforts to ensure better management of coastal resources and the environment. You can get involved in the following ways.

Volunteer

You can volunteer to work on different committees for the conference. The Queensland Coastal Conference is a labour intensive enterprise that requires all hands on deck for the success of any of our events. This is why we encourage individuals to volunteer in the planning committees that will ensure that the event is a success. Many committees are handling different parts of the events such as the accommodation, venues, tours, feeding, logistics, among many others. You can join any of these committees to contribute your quota to the success of a program that will educate many people on current issues as regards the coastal environment and ecosystem in Queensland, Australia.

You don’t need to have any special skill to volunteer, as long as you have the passion for better handling of coastal matters in our community, you are good to go. We will find you the right volunteer role based on your skills, and you can be sure that you will be in the committee where you can function most efficiently.

Of course, there are perks associated with volunteering in a committee for the conference and part of such bonuses is subsidised fees on different aspects of the conference. Beyond that, you will also get the satisfaction of knowing you are doing something that matters and will gain experience in the committee that you are. By the end of the conference, you will definitely be a better planner who understands what it means to organise an event, and you can replicate the experience in organising a local coastal conference or program in your community. It is definitely a win-win for you on every front because you will also get the recognition for your service. We value our volunteers and make sure we celebrate their sacrifices.

Donate

Another to get involved is through donations. We accept donations from individuals and organisations who share similar interests with us and are open to working with us in any way so as to help us achieve our mission. Donating is quite easy to do, and your donations are tax-deductible. Your generous donation will go a long way in helping us improve the standards of coastal management so as to foster vibrant communities, healthy ecosystems and sustainable use of resources.
