Koala Action Inc (KAI) participates in a wide variety of community activities and events not only for educational purposes but in order to fund-raise and meet our objectives.

 

Community Activities

KAI attends environmental festivals such as Kumbartcho at Eatons Hill Queensland as well as Council events throughout the Moreton Bay region.

We use these opportunities to erect visual display boards, distribute information and educational brochures, provide koala rescue details, emergency contacts and fund-raise.

   Koala Education and
Awareness Presentations

 

KAI offers the latest in depth scientific information in a power-point format available to schools, businesses, organisations and community groups. Each and everyone of us can contribute to the sustainability of the koala population. Knowledge is power enabling us to reduce the perils faced by koalas.

We offer two main presentations:

Public Awareness and Activism

The general public appear to remain unaware of the plight of the koala in South East Queensland in spite of the media attention it receives.

KAI generates awareness utilising a range of media options, public demonstrations and by attending community/environmental events.

We regularly submit articles into local newspapers and have been filmed on local TV current affairs programs.
