An Umbrella for All
Many
community groups in the ACT are supported by one of three umbrella
'Catchment Groups' which are structured in a similar fashion to District
Landcare Networks in NSW. The Southern ACT, Ginninderra and Molonglo Catchment
Groups are 'group-of-groups' organisations whose primary aims are to:
 |
Improve the environs of the ACT; |
|
Provide a support network for smaller community environment groups; |
|
Coordinate on-ground action through 'sub-catchment planning' |
|
enable the community to address priority issues in a strategic fashion well into the future. |
|
Improve information exchange; |
|
Educate the community on the importance of Landcare and natural resource management; and |
|
Enhance the wider community's awareness of the environment and the impact we have on it. |
