Nature Conservation Council of NSW

The Nature Conservation Council of NSW is the state’s leading environmental advocacy organisation. We represent over 200 conservation groups and 80,000 people across NSW, supported by a dedicated team of leading ecologists, scientists, campaigners and community organisers.

Our mission is to build, support and maintain a powerful and effective movement for nature. We do this by bringing together the NSW environmental movement through community building and organising efforts and running centralised campaigns that exert maximum pressure on decision makers. Meanwhile, our Healthy Ecosystems team are on the ground using the latest scientific evidence and practical expertise to improve the health of our forests, oceans, rivers, and wildlife, stop extinction, and improve the way we respond to and manage fire.

The Nature Conservation Council of NSW has for decades been organising communities to protect local environments and undertake activism across the state, and has experienced the successes and challenges of working in urban, regional, fire prone and disaster-hit communities.
