What is the role of regional natural resource management organisations under Caring for our Country?
Regional NRM organisations have formed a partnership with the Australian Government to facilitate the integrated delivery of Caring for our Country at the regional level. They provide support and access to knowledge and skills for landholders, coastcare and Landcare groups and the broader community. They also work with local and state governments to deliver region-wide outcomes and maintain the capacity of the regional community to address the Australian Government’s targets. Regional NRM organisations are required to submit online expressions of interest for regional base-level funding. They can also submit competitive proposals for additional funding under the open call. Regional NRM organisations may partner with other organisations submitting proposals or expressions of interest, and they may act as a sponsor for unincorporated community groups submitting applications.
