  2. Translate highly technical information into practical solutions for user groups.
  3. Improve the exchange of ideas between resource managers, user groups, and the research community.
  4. Improve the performance of community action groups through the sharing of best management practices and identifying ways these groups can collaborate.
  5. Provide a forum for industry, resource managers and user groups to communicate their needs to the research community.
