The 2026 Victorian Landcare Forum
Description
The 2026 Victorian Landcare Forum, proudly sponsored by the Natural Resources Conservation Trust (NRCT), is being held from Monday, 31 August to Wednesday, 2 September, at the Cardinia Cultural Centre in Pakenham. A ticketed dinner will be held on Tuesday, 1 September as part of the event.
The Victorian Landcare Forum facilitates the gathering of landcarers, professionals, experts and key stakeholders who are taking action to support rich landscapes, vibrant ecosystems and sustainable agricultural practices, all while bolstering the strength of local communities. Additionally, the Forum helps strengthen the landcare movement, through knowledge sharing and learning via formal sessions and informal networking opportunities.
This year, the conference portion of the Forum will be held over two days, with a mixture of plenary sessions and concurrent streams, which will allow you to choose the way you experience the Forum.
There will also be an exhibition hall featuring our valued sponsors.
The full program is now available on our website.
While we have made every effort to keep ticket costs as accessible as possible, we recognise that financial barriers may still exist for some people. If you are a student, a First Nations person, or have been impacted by fire, flood, or drought in the past 12 months, please get in touch with us at info@landcarevictoria.org.au. Thanks to the support of our sponsors, we have a small number of subsidised tickets available.
