Review of Caring for our Country

The review of the Caring for our Country initiative has commenced. The review will look at the effectiveness of the program, achievements to date and will explore options for natural resource management delivery in the future.

An important part of the review will be consulting with Australia's natural resource management stakeholders. The views and experiences of our partners and stakeholders are an essential part of informing the review and will help identify program improvements that are practical and focused.

In addition, specific feedback from the recipients and applicants of Caring for our Country funding about the outcomes of investments will help tell the Caring for our Country story and inform the review.
