Five-year plan lays important foundations for ambitious 2030 strategy

There are many more Australians we could be reaching and inviting to walk alongside us. That’s why we're proud to launch our new brand ad - The poetry of the landscape.

We've made significant progress managing cats, foxes, and rabbits in Noongar Country, Southwest WA, near Albany.

For the first time, Bush Heritage is taking part in Climate Week NYC, one of the world’s most significant gatherings on climate action.

The breadth of this year’s conference reflects its standing as a leading event in the conservation community’s calendar.

“Empowered, connected and impactful”. We recognise the significant contribution of our volunteers in 2024-25.

By refining our reserve sizes, prioritising legal boundaries over operational realities, we’ve improved our accuracy – building on a foundation of decades of confident transparent reporting.

This year, we were reminded of the extraordinary power of people coming together to protect Australia’s irreplaceable landscapes.

“We need to talk with the Traditional Custodian’s because they’ve been managing Country for a really long time.”

Bush Heritage’s most recent reserve acquisitions share two key features: unusual names – Dodgey Downs and Nil Desperandum – and crucial links to existing reserves.

Among the jagged breakaways and sprawling chenopod country of Evelyn Downs Reserve, land management activities are well underway to address threats to the recovery of  the reserve’s native vegetation. Located roughly two hours' drive north of Coober Pedy, Evelyn Downs is our largest reserve.

A number of Bush Heritage staff have rolled into Meanjin/Brisbane, to be at this week’s International Congress for Conservation Biology 2025 (ICCB). At a time when nature needs us most, our global community is coming together on Jagera and Turrbal Country in Queensland, to share, listen and create solutions to shape a more resilient future for Earth and everything that depends on it.  

Known as the brain and the heart behind our knowledge strategy and conservation science approach, we’ve been so lucky to learn from and be inspired by ‘Dr Bec’. But the time has come for us to wish her all the best as she prepares for new adventures.

When it comes to restoring and protecting healthy Country, our volunteers make a huge contribution that's worth celebrating. 

After an incredible 18-year journey, working closely with Warddeken Land Management to help protect Country our formal partnership has come to an end. 

With heavy rain and floods in Queensland and northern New South Wales last week, many staff have been impacted, but thankfully everyone is safe and in good spirits.
