Queensland's Citizen Science Hub

The Moreton Bay Foundation plans to establish a Knowledge Hub to guide research, action and advocacy.

Moreton Bay is one of Australia’s most important coastal and cultural resources. It is an international treasure known for its biodiversity and breathtaking beauty. The Bay is a popular recreational destination due to its diversity of wildlife, habitats and seascapes. It supports diverse industries including fisheries, aquaculture, port services and tourism.

The Moreton Bay Moreton Bay Foundation, a member body of QSN, commissioned a project in late 2023 to identify gaps in the management and protection of the Bay in response to this community need. The resulting Moreton Bay 2035 report has identified significant threats to the health and sustainable use of Moreton Bay.

In response to these significant threats, the Foundation has developed a strategic plan to guide research, action and advocacy for the Bay. The major initiative is the creation of a consolidated Knowledge Hub to support research, planning and management decisions.

One of the limbs will be a library of documentary materials – reports, scientific articles, opinion pieces and other statements worthy of including in a library. QSN will assist in this process by recording materials that come to hand progressively. A QSN page has been assigned for materials particularly relevant to the Bay.
