The Nudgee Beach Environmental Education Centre (NBEEC) has developed a network of information exchange with community interest groups who engage in nature based conservation.
These groups include:
- Australian Marine Conservation Society
- Brisbane City Council Boondall Visitors Centre
- Queensland Catholic University
- CSIRO
- Wader Study Group
- Government departments.
- Yatsu Higata Wetlands Centre in Japan.
Many conservation, research and educational groups utilise the Centre’s facilities and staff expertise, developing long-term research projects in the area as a result. This benefits the Centre by receiving assistance in the development of resources and displays.
The Centre has specialised equipment, displays, references and teaching resources.
Parents and Citizens (P&C) Association
The NBEEC P&C Association was formed in 2011 to promote the interests of, and facilitate the development and further improvement of the Centre.
Functions of the P&C
