WA Better by Nature is excited to invite you to attend a symposium on Building Private Land Conservation in WA.

Please join us in Perth on Tuesday 16 and Wednesday 17 September 2025 at the WA Maritime Museum in historic Fremantle/Walyalup.

Western Australia is home to 8 of 15 national biodiversity hotspots making it a significant area of interest for conservation efforts. With the right policy and support from government, we can revitalise WA's dormant covenanting program and attract funding for public-private partnerships for protected areas creation in Western Australia.

The symposium will bring together leaders from private and public conservation organisations across Australia to explore the future direction of private-land conservation in WA.

Registrations open on Wednesday 26 March, and a full program will be shared soon.

If you’re interested in speaking or joining a panel, please reach out to info@betterbynature.org.au.

We hope you’ll join us on Whadjuk Noongar Country this September to help shape the future of private land conservation in WA. Stay tuned for more details—we look forward to seeing you there!

WA Better by Nature acknowledges the Traditional Owners across Western Australia and their continuing connection to land, sea, culture and community. We pay our respects to them, their cultures, and to Elders both past and present.
