Advocacy
Murrumbidgee Landcare Inc (or Murrumbidgee Landcare Association as it was then known) was formed in 1996 to provide "a voice" for community Landcare in the Murrumbidgee catchment. Advocacy has always been core business for MLi. As an independent community organisation, our goal is to promote and support community Landcare. This means working to ensure government at all levels, as well as regional NRM authorities, understand and appreciate the value and importance of community Landcare, including the significant social and economic contribution it makes to our communities and the important environmental contribution it makes to our landscapes.
Listed here are contributions made by MLi and by community Landcare at a local, regional, state and national level, as well as contributions from the friends of Landcare.
