Approach
Impacts affecting the marine environment are often a complex interaction of multiple drivers and stressors, including climate change, developments, and extraction, often to the detriment of stakeholders, communities, and the environment alike. Understanding these current and potential impacts and developing strategies to avoid them is crucial to reversing declines. We specialize in developing comprehensive, science-based strategies to achieve this. We utilize a range of tools and approaches to provide contextual insights into the current state of environmental and socioeconomic values and develop solutions to address them.
Projects
We provide services for projects ranging from fine-scale, one-off contributions to large, complex, broad-scale projects involving a multidisciplinary team. Some come about in response to an urgent client need, while others are the culmination of many years of strategic work towards achieving specific outcomes. We have worked with some of the smallest NGO’s in the poorest nations and some of the largest multinational corporations in highly developed nation contexts. In all instances, we approach our work with the same rigour, professionalism, and intent of delivering high-quality scientifically robust commercial and environmental outcomes on time and budget.
