Landcare Victoria has created this detailed and accessible how-to guide for landcare teams to develop an investment-ready Landscape Action Plan, drawing from the experiences of the New Futures for Victorian Landcare project partners and pilots. These methodologies and tools can be applied or adapted by landscapes globally, to facilitate the development of Landscape Action Plans suited to their visions and local contexts.
The New Futures for Victorian Landcare Project led by Landcare Victoria brought together partner organisations Regen Farmers Mutual, Australian National University Sustainable Farms Program and Landscape Finance Lab, to secure philanthropic investment from the Ian Potter Foundation and the Natural Resources Conservation Trust, to finance a pilot landscape action planning program.
This handbook brings together the best-practice methodologies of all partners, refined and integrated with learnings from the four pilot landscapes in the state of Victoria, Australia:
- Buloke and Northern Grampians Landcare Network - “Windharp Horizons”
- Hughes Creek Catchment Collaborative in conjunction with Strathbogie Ranges Conservation Management Network, Longwood Plains Conservation Management Network and Euroa Arboretum - “Granite to Goulburn”
- Kiewa Catchment Landcare Groups and Wodonga Urban Landcare Network - “New Futures Kiewa-Wodonga”
- Heytesbury District Landcare Network - “Craters to Coast”
