| Abstract: | Education and public participation are recognized as important elements of coastal zone management. The current paper describes
the Uk’s largest public participation survey concerned with coastal issues. Coastwatch UK involves thousands of volunteers
in an annual survey of the coastline. The project has several aims—primarily to provide an insight into the major problems
and threats to the coastline and, through the involvement of volunteers, to raise public awareness and aid environmental education
at all levels. |
