Supporting Landcare in Tasmania has been a topic of the 2024 State election. We have advocated hard for all the Landcarers across Tasmania to be considered and recognised by political parties as an essential part of our community. For the first time in a long time, Landcare is part of State Environment and Agricultural policy pledges by major parties and prominent independents.
