Reforestation - RDA Great Southern

Period: 2024 - 2028
Funding Body: Regional Development Australia Great Southern
Funds: $100,000
Project Officers: Ashley Marjoram


Summary

A legacy generously left by Graeme Jones, greening the Great Southern region aiding much needed landscape restoration, beautification, and marginal land improvement. Gillamii will work with the local community and co-ordinate and collaborate with the catchment groups and local shires to establish seedlings and ensure positive outcomes for environmental and agricultural sustainability within the region. The funding enables a range of plantings to be undertaken by land managers including shelter belts, salt land mitigation and fodder systems, and native revegetation, while adequately supporting our regional NRM groups to execute these essential activities.

Objectives & Outcomes

  • Establish seedlings in year 1 within the Kent-Frankland Region

  • Work collaboratively with respective NRM bodies and Organisations in the Great Southern region to disperse funds for revegetation.

  • Manage stakeholders and reporting
