National Environmental Research Program (NERP)
The National Environmental Research Program (NERP) is an Australian initiative that funds scientific research to better understand and manage the country's natural environment. It focuses on issues such as biodiversity, water resources, climate change, and ecosystem health. By supporting scientists and projects, NERP helps inform policies and practices that protect Australia's natural ecosystems, ensuring they remain resilient and sustainable for future generations. The program encourages collaboration across government, research institutions, and communities to address complex environmental challenges with evidence-based solutions.
