Keep up to date with our work to protect native forests

Victoria has finally ended industrial clear-fell logging. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to re-imagine our relationship to forested landscapes.

 

Now is the time to ensure lasting protection from industrial exploitation & colonial resource extraction.

It's time to return forested Cultural Landscapes to First Nations custodians, empower transitioning communities to embrace regenerative livelihoods, and fund the restoration & climate resilience of native forests.

Victoria's high country and tall forests are iconic – but snow gum and ash forests are under threat as climate impacts escalate.

I
t’s time to call for the return of land to First Nations custodians & empower communities to participate in the care-taking of forests. Government must fund the active restoration of forests to help threatened species to recover & build the resilience of alpine ecosystems to climate change.

Your donation will help us campaign for forest restoration programs that repair and protect damaged and vulnerable landscapes, while creating regenerative livelihoods beyond logging.

Together, we can support communities to create regenerative regional economies that leave no one behind.
