In 2024, the state government promised to create “the largest additions to our forest reserve system in our state’s history”.
Since then, they’ve delayed, backtracked and made contradictory statements that threaten to make this an empty commitment.
Right now, forests that should already be protected under the government’s pledge are at risk from a zombie logging industry that could return with the stroke of a pen.
- Advocate tirelessly for swift legislative action to secure permanent protection for our forests in the Central West, Central Highlands, Gippsland and East Gippsland.
- Engage communities across Victoria to amplify the voices of the majority who demand action, so that politicians can’t ignore us.
- Undertake surveys to highlight natural values and monitor threats to unprotected forests.
- Commission detailed mapping with local expertise to make a clear case for protection.
Your gift brings Victoria closer to safeguarding our forests for generations to come.
