Noosa Biosphere Reserve Foundation – Communications







In 2007, UNESCO recognised Noosa for its balance between people and nature with global designation as the Noosa Biosphere Reserve. The Noosa Biosphere Reserve Foundation (NBRF) is a not-for-profit organisation established by the Noosa Shire Council as the governing body to maintain Noosa’s biosphere reserve status. Its role is to develop ‘big ideas’ research and projects aligned with the aims of the UNESCO Man and the Biosphere Program. NBRF works with stakeholders and community to enhance biodiversity conservation and promote sustainable living in Noosa.
