Research & Consulting
The
philosophy of Sanctuary Beach explains our dynamic. We believe that
"science and consulting are intrinsically linked in this ever more
complex world". The financial, population and global climate pressures
now mean that world-class solutions to problems must aim to blend the best
scientific knowledge with the most practical solutions. And the best way
forward? ... Use people with decades of “hard-won” practical experience who
incorporate:
●
Scientific advances
●
Technological advances
●
Computer modelling and forecasting
|

|
|
Outcomes
can be known before going forward, so that balanced decisions can be made
by the client in consultation with the community. Our goal is to disseminate
the phenomenal advances that have been made in marine science over the last
3-4 decades (like many other scientific disciplines).
Sanctuary
Beach wants the client to have the best knowledge and the community to have
confidence that everything possible is being done to ensure correct
decisions will be going forward. When there's no perfect solution, we find
the best solution.
Sanctuary
Beach draws in extra expertise when needed such as the Coastal Engineering
skills of Arup Sigma (Mauritius) or the research capabilities of Melbourne
University (where Black holds an honorary Associate Professor's position).
Our Indian, Australian, New Zealand, British and American associations are
exceptionally strong and give Sanctuary Beach access to former and current
Institute Directors, research professors and key consultants.
