Fight for the Reef is a partnership between the Australian Marine Conservation Society and WWF-Australia. We’re working with people who love the Reef along the Queensland coast, across Australia and all over the world - who all want to see it protected. The Fight for the Reef campaign has helped to: Secure a ban on capital dredge spoil dumping in the Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Area, Protect untouched parts of the Reef coast from new port developments, Stop three mega coal port expansions, Ensure the World Heritage Committee keeps the Australian Government ‘on probation’ until Reef health improves.
