Charles Sturt University’s Dr Katie Doyle and Mr Braeden Lampard from OzFish Unlimited shared a One Basin pilot study to determine if community members can be trained to tag fish, while working within animal ethics and fisheries regulations.

The work will establish the framework, through training and collaboration, for citizen scientists to be incorporated into basin-scale programs.

The panel comprised:

• Craig Copeland
