Exploring integrated landscape management in a coastal environment
On March 31 Nature Impact Collective members switched the meeting room for nature with a trip to Victoria’s Otways region guided by the Conservation Ecology Centre. An early start rewarded us with a breathtaking dawn tour at Wildlife Wonders before we travelled to Cape Otway to learn about integrated landscape management across coastal, hinterland, and wet forest environments.
Thank you to the Conservation Ecology Centre (CEC) Team for taking the time to share their expertise and insights with us in particular founder and CEO Lizzie Corke OAM, Dr Claire Feniuk, Dr Jack Pascoe, Dr Kay Weltz and James Templeton.
