Outlined in the 2025–2027 Strategic Plan, this vision reinforces our commitment to supporting our growing network of volunteers and building stronger partnerships between government and community.

As the peak body for Landcare in Victoria, our focus is on enabling and advocating for the thousands of people who care for land, water and biodiversity.

Our strategy is built around three core goals:

• Strengthening support for Victorian Landcarers – We’re investing in improved resources, governance and support to help local groups thrive.
• Doing more with others – By working more closely with partners, we can amplify the impact of community-led environmental efforts.
• Making the case for community-led action – We’re promoting the value of local knowledge and grassroots leadership in delivering real environmental outcomes.

The plan responds to what Landcarers across Victoria have told us they need: better co-ordination, stronger advocacy and more support for volunteers. It sets out a path to strengthen our system, grow our movement and build a future where community-led action is central to caring for the environment.

If you believe in the power of this work and like what you see, please consider backing us. Volunteer with your local Landcare group, join the Landcare Victoria Members Council, or make a donation to support practical, community-driven solutions to the environmental challenges we all face.
