Landcare NSW and the NSW Biodiversity Conservation Trust worked in partnership to deliver ‘Partnering in Private Land Conservation’ funded by the NSW government with Regional Landcare Networks across NSW in 2022.

North Coast Regional Landcare Network developed the ‘Partnering in Private Land Conservation’ project in partnership with Landcare NSW and regional NSW Biodiversity Conservation Trust on the North Coast. The project aimed to connect and educate landholders about private land conservation and develop a consistent regional approach to the delivery of these outcomes by working with local Landcare networks to codesign and deliver a series of workshops, field trips and data collection. The North Coast has a strong private land conservation movement that achieves excellent outcomes for wildlife habitat protection, connectivity, and regeneration – all key Landcare objectives.

The project resulted in positive community outcomes through connection and shared stories. Landholders increased their knowledge, skills, and technical capacity to deliver best practice conservation through engaging with other landholders and local experts.

North Coast Regional Landcare are now developing a submission with regional Biodiversity Conservation Trust staff for the next phase ‘Private Conservation Matters’ to be delivered in 2024.
