We exist to strengthen the health of communities and ecosystems for mutual benefit. Through our work we build a more harmonious and helpful relationship between people and nature, for everyone’s future.
Molonglo Conservation Group is a not-for-profit coordinator of Landcare and Park Care groups in the Molonglo and Queanbeyan River catchments of southern NSW and the ACT.
We use diversified funding streams to implement programs that restore landscapes, enhance knowledge and build community capabilities. Our activities cover urban, peri-urban, rural and conservation landscapes.
The Group was formed in 2003 with the principal objective of developing the Molonglo Catchment Strategy. The implementation of this is now our focus. We do this by coordinating and integrating the network of Landcare and Park Care groups in the Molonglo catchment.
The Group has been supported by the ACT, NSW and Australian Governments’ environmental programs in this role. The Group seeks to assist with coordination and collaboration and to add value to existing services.
Our vision is to achieve a healthy, resilient and productive catchment: the Molonglo and Queanbeyan river system with all its diverse, interconnected tableland landscapes and communities.
We stand up for a healthy environment for everyone’s future.
We facilitate, develop, design and deliver best practice inter-connected and adaptive natural resource and landscape management programs.
We engage communities and collaborate with government and other organisations to raise awareness and implement practical initiatives with positive environmental outcomes.
We put forward evidence-based solutions and innovative ideas for how we can live in harmony with the natural world, treading lightly on the planet.
