Protecting our natural resources

Collaborative action for healthy landscapes and seascapes, protected natural values, and sustainable livelihoods and lifestyles.

We work to keep the natural and productive landscapes of south-eastern Tasmania healthy over the long term. We play a key role in building partnerships, securing and directing investment, connecting knowledge and expertise to action and increasing the capacity of others to engage in NRM activities.

Tasmania’s southern region covers 2.5 million hectares of land and is bounded by the Southern Ocean. It is recognised globally for its healthy, intact and diverse natural landscapes and productive land and seascapes. Our region’s wealth of natural resources underpins southern Tasmania’s identity as well as its economic, social, and environmental wellbeing.
