Community role
The department and Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service are involving the community in helping to protect and manage our environment.
Nature refuges are voluntary conservation agreements between landholders and QPWS to protect areas of significant conservation value.
NatureAssist is a financial incentives scheme designed to encourage and assist private land conservation in Queensland.
Volunteers across the state assist on a variety of projects which are retaining, restoring and improving our environment.
Coastcare is a community-based program that encourages residents, volunteers, businesses and interest groups to care for their coastal areas.
