The initiative\, funded by US philanthropists\, aspires to build inter-continental capacity and develop the sector.   \n\n\n\nJoin the Australian Environmental Grantmakers Network (AEGN) CEO and members\, along with ALCA CEO and members and Global Stewardship Exchange delegates (either online or in Melbourne face-to-face) to hear why conservation on private land matters\, and the role of philanthropy in supporting important programs.   \n\n\n\nWe will explore two Australian case studies featuring the restoration of wetlands in south-eastern Australia (Nature Glenelg Trust) and managing Country for conservation\, sustainable agriculture and Indigenous Heritage (Gayini – Nari Nari Country\, The Nature Conservancy).
