Ningaloo Outlook Symposium Outputs

Since the project commenced, two Ningaloo Outlook Symposium’s have been held in Perth. The purpose of these events are to bring together interested persons from BHP and CSIRO, conservation and natural resource managers, industry and the scientific community to present research findings from the Ningaloo Outlook partnership in an open and inclusive forum.

Presentations from these events can be accessed below:

If you would like to attend the fourth symposium scheduled for March 2019, please register your interest to ningaloo.outlook@csiro.au
