Community Action Plan
Burnett Baffle RegionThe Burnett Mary Community Action Plan (CAP) was collated by Burnett Mary Regional Group (BMRG) through consultation with community groups, stakeholders and key partners including Traditional Owners and youth representatives.
The CAP identifies may assets and threats in the Region with impacts on the Great Barrier Reef and aims to develop strategies to address these threats to provide benefit to the marine and coastal environments.
The Opportunity
BCCA will coordinate and guide implementation of the Community Action Plan (CAP) by working with motivated community groups and stakeholders within the Burnett Mary with a focus on the Burnett and Baffle catchments. This will be achieved by building on existing resources and partnerships for greatest leverage and impact. Community groups will be empowered to address ‘grassroot’ needs through well-targeted seed funding. BCCA will continue the community engagement processes and update plans overtime.
