Alliance is Official
In January this year the Central Victorian Biolinks Alliance officially came into being with ten member groups signing off on a governing Agreement with the Vision of:
People working together to maintain and restore a healthy natural environment from the Grampians to the Victorian Alps and from the Murray River to the Macedon Ranges
and a Mission;
To actively support and coordinate with member groups, government agencies and other stakeholders in achieving their ecological and sustainability objectives by providing assistance through a range of partnership building, communication, educational, funding, capacity building, scientific and regional planning activities
The Alliance is managed by a Management Team with major decisions made by the member groups. The members of the alliance are;
- Project Platypus,
- Wedderburn CMN,
- Upper Campaspe Landcare Network
- Mid-Loddon Landcare Network
- Piper Biolink
- Strathbogie CMN
- Ballarat Environment Network
- Bendigo and Districts Environment Council
- Moorabool Landcare Network
- Wombat Forestcare.
One of the guiding principles of the Alliance is to be inclusive. So this membership is open to any groups wishing to work towards the CVB vision. To this point we have only extended ourselves to the extent our resources have allowed. But watch this space..
