4 Contribute to the toolkit

We want your help to make this toolkit better!

This Marine Megafauna Conservation Toolkit builds on past successes of a previous toolkit that has contributed greatly to marine conservation outcomes (BirdLife International (2010)). This latest version was built with a small budget by a small team, and with support from an incredible group of contributors.

Our understanding of marine systems will change, technology will change, methods will change, policy will change, accessibility will change. All these changes mean there are ever growing opportunities to improve on things and do things better: ultimately allowing us to scale up the urgent solutions needed to deliver conservation outcomes for marine megafauna and associated biodiversity.

We have a growing list of ideas and questions we are considering to make this toolkit better for everyone and we can’t do it alone. We want this toolkit to evolve into a marine conservation community led initiative.

If you have an idea or suggestion for an improvement (anything from language, visualisation, analysis, other), please reach out to us.

We have not worked out all the details about the best way to contribute. But, fundamentally, it is our philosophy that anyone who contributes in a constructive way deserves accreditation in the toolkit.
