Program summary

Junior Landcare is Landcare Australia's youth program, which aims to get kids actively involved in their environment and enable them to develop sustainable habits from a young age. It is a great, hands-on way to get kids connecting with and learning about nature, as well as encouraging them to get outdoors.

Key dates

Who can apply?

Any school or youth group seeking to educate young Australians about the environment can apply for funding.
