AMCS is an independent, national and not-for-profit organisation that has been operating for over forty years. Our conservation work is funded through the generous support of Australians who want to give something back.



AMCS is the voice for ours coast and oceans. We work with local communities to protect ocean life and the habitats.

AMCS uses many strategies to achieve its campaign goals:

- We organise and present at conferences and workshops



- We communicate our key messages to the broader community through the public media
