Investing in Southern Otway Landcare Network

A re-elected Andrews Labor Government will back Southern Otway Landcare Network to keep protecting the biodiversity and the promotion of sustainable land management across our Otways.

We’ll provide a $50,000 grant to help them continue their much-needed work, looking after our environment and helping Victorians learn more about biodiversity and protecting our native plants, insects and wildlife.

Southern Otway Landcare Network is a grassroot community program dedicated to protecting and restoring our environment.

Only a Labor Government will protect our environment – our long term plan, Protecting Victoria’s Environment Biodiversity 2037, is being delivered with record funding of more than $560 million.

Labor is investing more to protect our precious plants and animals than any government in Victoria’s history.

In sharp contrast, when it comes to delivering the vital support people in our community rely on, Matthew Guy’s Liberals will leave locals behind with their policy of cuts and closures. They just can’t be trusted to back our local community organisations.

Only a re-elected Labor Government will back the community organisations that keep our community strong – because only Labor will do what matters.
