Australian Landcare movement

The Australian Landcare movement is a community-driven effort focused on sustainable land management and environmental conservation. Originating in the late 1980s, it encourages farmers, residents, and groups to work together to improve soil health, protect biodiversity, and restore degraded ecosystems. Landcare promotes practices like tree planting, erosion control, and water management, aiming to balance agricultural productivity with environmental sustainability. It fosters local stewardship and knowledge sharing, empowering communities to care for their land and create resilient landscapes for future generations.
