Our waterways and oceans and fisheries are under threat. Unsustainable fishing practices, pest species, pollution and litter are choking our wildlife from fish to birds to marine mammals and even to aquatic vegetation. Everyone needs to know how they can minimise their impact on our wonderful aquatic environments.
You can help Fishcare Victoria educate the community on what it takes to enjoy our waterways in a responsible manner, to be a sustainable angler and even a smarter consumer to ensure our waterways are respected and conserved into the future.
What do we do?
We run educational workshops with Victorian school children, multicultural communities, disability groups and the broader community to highlight what they can do to make a difference for the conservation of our waterways and oceans.
Limiting the spread of pest species, managing litter appropriately, cleaning up our beaches and waterways, using fish friendly tackle, fish identification, buying only sustainably caught or farmed seafood are just a few of the topics we look at with our participants.
We produce educational resources to inform community on what's under the water and how we can protect it.
We want everyone to be able to enjoy Victoria's wonderful coastline and inland waters but to realise how precious our waterways and oceans are to ensure these environments are protected long into the future.
