Welcome to Global Landcare
Welcome to Global Landcare, a non-profit organisation supporting overseas communities to sustain their land, water and biodiversity.
The Landcare approach is described as:
- Community based (for decisions and actions) as local groups
- Improving natural resource management for production and conservation
- Open to partnerships for information, funding and other opportunities
- Individual groups autonomous in their management (no hierarchy).
We have supported Landcare and projects around the globe including Germany, Iceland, New Zealand, Tonga, the Philippines, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Fiji, USA, Canada, Jamaica, Japan and 12 African countries.
We draw upon a wide range of expertise through our skilled members, our wider network and our excellent relationships with corporate and government organisations. Become a member or get involved through your company or organisation.
Our Global Landcare Program (GLP) manages The ALI Fund which provides small grants for projects carried out by established and new Landcare groups in developing countries. The program started in 2013 and we have supported projects in many countries to date.
