Project Story
Adopt-a-spot Partnership
Line in the Sand has engaged Nature Conservation Margaret River Region to deliver a 5 year strategic program of coastal stewardship in the Margaret River Region. The Program commenced in 2020, and program activities, funding and deliverables will be determined and reset on a year by year basis. The areas of focus for the partnership are outlined below. LITS and Nature Conservations Margaret River are working collaboratively with local volunteer coast care groups to ensure the region’s coastal ecosystems are managed according to the best practice and are strong and resilient to face the challenges of people and climate change.
