In partnership with Greening
Australia and the Environmental Protection Agency this project aims
to deliver habitat connectivity at the landscape
scale. Landholders will be engaged in a stewardship
scheme to:
- undertake on-ground works that enhance biodiversity
values in core areas and habitat corridors; and
- establish perpetual volunteer conservation agreements
over these lands, which are principally productive grazing
enterprises, and thus increase the National Reserve
System.
This project is funded through the
Australian Government’s Caring for our Country program until
30 June. As a result, only limited properties in the northern
Brigalow Belt with very high biodiversity values will be
engaged.
