    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[The Great Barrier Reef exists as the pinnacle example of underwater natural heritage. Located off the coast of Queensland, Australia, it spans over 2300km in area, containing a staggering and diverse array of marine wildlife and an abundance of coral reefs. Its legendary status and immense value make it a UNESCO World Heritage Site with substantial ecological significance. Beyond the value that it has in its ecological diversity, it also has significant cultural and economic importance, for the internal indigenous communities and tourism industry respectively. With reference to sustainable development goals (SDG), the Great Barrier Reef has significant connection to SDG14: Life Below Water, a goal which aims to utilise the natural resources of our oceans as well as conserving them over time.

Using digital interpretations of the Great Barrier Reef can provide substantial assistance in achieving this target, as it can engage users worldwide by fostering an improved awareness and educating them about the fragility of the Reef, and vitally the action which can be taken to preserve it. This can be through immersive experiences, such as 3D or Virtual Reality tours, and resources for education.]]></dcterms:description>
