Partnering for Biodiversity

Partnering for Biodiversity: Central Tablelands Regional Landcare Network & Biodiversity Conservation Trust

The NSW Biodiversity Conservation Trust (BCT) is dedicated to collaborating with landholders to boost and preserve biodiversity throughout New South Wales (NSW). Their mission is to create thriving conservation areas on private lands to safeguard the state's unique flora and fauna.

The BCT and Landcare NSW are joining forces to advance private land conservation in NSW over the next 18 months. Announced by Minister for the Environment Penny Sharpe, this initiative aims to empower landholders with best practices in land conservation, catering to the varied needs of different regions across NSW.

The BCT provides comprehensive information on private land conservation, the benefits of participation, success stories, and the impact of their initiatives through their business plan and website. Their work spans several major programs and educational efforts aimed at promoting biodiversity conservation knowledge.

This collaborative effort underscores the critical role of private landowners in achieving the NSW Government's conservation objectives, leveraging Landcare NSW's expertise in community engagement and capacity building to enhance biodiversity management on private lands.

The partnership between the BCT and Landcare NSW, along with the involvement of the Central Tablelands Regional Landcare Network in upcoming events, illustrates a unified approach to environmental conservation, emphasizing shared goals and leveraging collective resources for greater impact in safeguarding NSW's biodiversity.

This initiative is made possible by the NSW Landcare Enabling
Program. A collaboration of Local Land Services and Landcare
NSW, supported by the NSW Government.
