Abstract

[Extract] To minimise negative anthropogenic impacts of tourism activities on dugong and marine turtles through tt-ialing codes of conduct for tourism related activities on dugong and marine turtles. Phase I of the project identified key issues relating to the protection of biological and cultural values associated with dugong and turtles, including the significance of the species in the context of Indigenous Australians' broader cultural and economic relationship with their sea country. Phase II involved the testing and evaluation in field trials of the dugong and turtle codes of conduct developed under Phase 1.
