Community Involvement So Far

To develop a comprehensive and informed report, the Shire of Broome has already hosted a series of State of the Environment Workshops. These workshops have brought together community members, local experts, and stakeholders to discuss the key environmental priorities and potential solutions for Broome’s future.

A community survey was also conducted through March 2025.
