Conserving koalas: Outcomes and impact following a two-year community engagement campaign using CBE™

Abstract

This case study outlines how local governments have partnered with scientists and professionals who are funded by state government to directly contribute to koala conservation. This paper explains an approach that can be deployed across different local government areas to deliver societal impact. Specifically, we provide a brief overview on how using the co-design, build, and engage framework can lead to measurable koala conservation outcomes such as increased koala sighting submissions reporting the results of two-years of campaign work in the Logan City Council local government area.
