Youth-led conservation groups are bringing young Australians back into nature

20 Jan

Many young Australians care deeply about the climate and environment. In fact, our survey found that young people are the group most likely to be influenced by environmental issues when voting. Yet when it comes to on-ground conservation, participation among young people lags behind older age groups.

Australia needs more young people involved in caring for the environment - after all, they will bear the impacts of nature losses and climate challenges in the future - but issues like eco-anxiety and growing disconnection from nature are holding many back from taking action.

The Northern Australia Conservation Alliance (NACA) acknowledges the Traditional Owners and Custodians of the lands, seas and waters across Northern Australia. We pay our respects to Elders past and present and honour the continuing cultures, knowledge systems and custodial responsibilities of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. We recognise that these Nations were self-governing under their own laws and customs long before colonisation, and that sovereignty was never ceded. NACA stands alongside First Nations peoples in the ongoing care and protection of Country. Always was, always will be Aboriginal land.
