Achieving Our Mission Through Community Engagement
About
The Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority (GBRMPA) is the principal adviser to the Commonwealth Government on the care and development of the Great Barrier Reef.
The GBRMPA wanted to improve their community engagement and encourage a culture of best practice. They needed an agreed framework of what working in partnership with the community meant in terms of behaviours and attitudes (both internal and external), tools and processes.
Impact Australia worked with GBRMPA to:
- Assess the current culture towards community engagement
- Facilitate a senior management workshop to work through the issues raised and develop future strategy
- Communicate a strategy for a culture change towards best practice community engagement
Following our intervention the GBRMPA benefited from a common vision highlighting what community engagement means for their business.

"Today’s session was absolutely fantastic and I got a lot out of it. It was a great group of people in one room, talking about issues that affect all of us, and connecting people... I feel a lot more inspired by the work that I’m involved in. I believe we can get to net-zero together."

"This part of the programme is always done in the early stages; the difference it has made to clients has been overwhelming. Once clients have returned they are more motivated, their managers notice a big difference from carrying out their daily activities to taking on new responsibilities, and they speak highly of the staff that supported them.”
