Community trust and support for aquaculture and fisheries is crucial for the wellbeing of industry members and their Social Licence to Operate (SLO). This project funded the design of a Community Engagement Modelling and Evaluation (M&E) Framework and Toolkit to enable industry stakeholders to effectively plan for, evaluate, and enhance their community engagement activities.

This project, an Industry Partnership Agreement (IPA) between Fisheries Research and Development Corporation (FRDC) and Oysters Australia (OA), was instigated to manage project development between and within OA's member states and co-ordinate access to the most suitable funding sources for RD&E goals. During the life of the four-year project, 33 oyster R&D projects to the value of $10.1 million were conducted, with the IPA involved in all but three projects.
