Join us as a Citizen Scientist

Be part of bold scientific projects designed to repair and restore Central Victoria’s vital ecosystems.

Citizen Science expands the range of monitoring activities we can do within our projects - including the Spring Plains Watershed Repair project and Glideways in Central Victoria. Your involvement helps us to gather data and understand the impact our work is having on the ecosystems we work in.

The suite of monitoring activities available include spotlighting and nest box surveys to find gliders and phascogales, looking for reptiles using artificial shelters, and observing the diverse range of invertebrates around us. These methods help us to understand the state of the ecosystem in its current form, and ongoing monitoring will help us understand what impact our actions have over the years and decades to come.

We aim to increase community involvement in habitat restoration and include the whole community in Citizen Science - people of all ages have an opportunity to participate in the program. We want to put Central Victoria on the map for conservation, and the community's involvement is key to achieving this.
