Global Landcare helps communities around the world take up the Landcare approach: local people working together to care for their land, water and biodiversity. We do this through small grants, training, advice and connections.
Small grants for local groups
Small grants go to new and established Landcare groups in developing countries, through our ALI Fund. Each project reports back with photos, so you can see the difference.
Training in the Landcare approach
We run masterclasses and workshops with local partners. Most recently, Landcare-LIFE training and the Indo-Pacific Landcare conference in Nadi, Fiji, in July 2026 brought together people from 10 countries.
Sharing know-how
Our members have visited Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Tonga, the Philippines, Fiji, South Korea and the United States, sharing how Landcare supports both food production and conservation.
A point of contact for Landcare worldwide
We’re a first port of call for anyone overseas interested in Landcare, and we help connect people with groups and expertise.
Welcoming international visitors
We arrange farm and group visits so visitors from overseas can see Australian Landcare in action.
Writing and publishing
Our members write and edit books and articles on Landcare history and practice, including the free book Lessons from Landcare, published with ACIAR and James Cook University.
