Overview Landcare Australia and VicTrack are working in partnership to fund Landcare activities on vacant railway land, rail trails and historic railways in Victoria. Landcare Australia is inviting the Landcare community with an interest in working on VicTrack land to submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) for projects up to three years in length.
Vacant VicTrack land often contains high-quality remnant vegetation, and may be home to some of Victoria’s most endangered species and ecological communities, particularly grasslands. It also provides important regional biodiversity corridors, linking fragmented areas and assisting animals to move through the landscape.
Project Funding Available Landcare Australia is seeking expressions of interest for projects requiring between $10,000 and $30,000 per annum, over a one- to three-year period.
Key Dates EOI opens: Thursday 19 October 2017 EOI closes: Friday 15 December 2017 Detailed application due for successful EOIs: 28 February 2018 Final approval of detailed application: June 2018 Project commencement: July 2017
