Nature restoration. Landscape resilience. Sustainable futures.

Leading collaborative action to protect, restore and strengthen the resilience of southern Tasmania’s unique biodiversity and landscapes.

Our Story > Our Strategy >

We drive knowledge, innovation and partnerships to deliver practical, purposeful and impactful solutions for nature and people.

Through strategic on-ground actions, we work to protect our unique wildlife and ecosystems, build climate resilience, support sustainable productions and secure a thriving natural environment for generations to come.

Where nature and productivity intersect

Southern Tasmania is one of Australia’s most distinctive natural regions. It is a place where globally important landscapes, biodiverse ecosystems, culturally significant sites, urban centres and premium primary production industries coexist within highly connected systems.

We play a key role in stewarding landscapes and seascapes where environmental integrity, primary productivity and community well-being work together, protecting what defines our region while strengthening the communities and industries that depend on our natural values.
