"NatureKeepers takes us on a journey to essentially change the way we think and behave. Strengthen and celebrate the respect, love and awe we must feel for our environment. As a NatureKeeper each of us can be at the forefront of progress towards a community and nation willing and capable of determining its own course of action."

"For generations Australians plundered their natural environment thinking it was a kind of 'cut and come again' magic pudding. It wasn't. Now it's time to give something back. Volunteering for the NatureKeepers program is a wonderful way for individuals to help at any level - from monitoring national parks or bush regeneration to the essential task of removing rubbish from our stressed bushlands. Every little does help and you'll meet some great people at the same time as doing your bit for Australia's fragile ecosystems."

"The NatureKeepers Community Biosurveys educate and inspire a range of community members while highlighting the significance of landscape connections across all land tenures (including private land, State Forests and Travelling Stock Routes) that contribute to the biodiversity of an area. "

 

-Toni McLeish, Grassy Box Woodland Conservation Management Network

 

 

"One of the best ways to instil a connection with the environment within people is to provide opportunities for everyone to experience it first hand."
