A collective voice for community landcare in WA
WA Forest Alliance, Margaret River Regional Environment Centre, and Denmark Environment Centre are working together to host and sponsor a Fire & Biodiversity Forum for one full day at Margaret River HEART on Friday 4 June, with additional workshop and field trip options on offer for Saturday 5 June.
Broadscale prescribed burning is used extensively as a fire mitigation tool in the South West of WA. In this forum we will examine its effectiveness and the ways it interacts with the natural landscape, including its impact on all living things. Our objective is to further develop an informed and nuanced conversation around fire mitigation, responses to fire, biodiversity, people and places, in the face of a changing climate.
