From the Victorian Landcare Program
Consultation for the Victorian Landcare Facilitator Program review is now open on Engage Vic. There are opportunities to provide feedback until 20 March 2024.
How to get involved
About the review
The Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action (DEECA) is looking towards future planning for the Victorian Landcare Facilitator Program. To ensure the program continues to deliver effective and efficient support for the Landcare and environmental volunteer community, we want to hear from stakeholders about what makes the program great, and what can be improved.
The Victorian Landcare Facilitator Program is an important part of supporting Landcare and environmental volunteers around Victoria. Landcare facilitators are highly valued by the community. Networks and other organisations employing facilitators play a crucial role in enabling community support.
Your input will be vital throughout the review process. We have engaged the consulting company RMCG to undertake an independent stakeholder engagement process. RMCG will analyse and collate everyone’s feedback and provide this de-identified feedback back to us for consideration in the review.
To learn more and have your say before 20 March 2024, visit Engage Vic.
