Caring for our Country
The Australian Government is investing $2 billion to achieve a real and measurable difference to Australia's environment. Caring for our Country funds projects across the country to achieve national targets.
Key investments
Over sixty per cent of Australia's landscapes are privately owned or leased for agricultural production. The practices adopted by land managers of these landscapes can contribute to environmental sustainability, and further improve.
Natural resource management
Australia's environment, with its iconic areas such as the Great Barrier Reef, the Wet Tropics, the Snowy River and the Australian Alps, along with our coastal areas, forests, rivers, wetlands and unique wildlife is at the centre of our national identity and our economy.
Getting involved
There are a number of ways to get involved in natural resource management activities at a local, regional, state or national level.
