AABR NSW is an incorporated association having members who are ecological restoration professionals, volunteers and people generally interested in restoration of natural areas.
AABR’s main areas of interest are:
- promoting the importance of protecting, restoring and managing natural areas in the most efficient and effective way.
- fostering a strong natural area restoration industry with good working conditions, remuneration and career paths for bush regenerators.
- establishing and promoting best practice restoration methods for different natural area types and situations
Although most AABR members work in terrestrial ecosystems, AABR sees ‘bush’ as the broader Australian environment including our aquatic systems.
AABR runs an annual series of talks and fields trips, puts out 4 newsletters a year and has a website. The easy to read newsletter includes write ups of the talks and field trips, details of conferences and events of interest to bush regenerators, case studies of bush regeneration projects, information about bush regeneration techniques, best practice and research, and bush regeneration industry issues.
AABR NSW was established in 1986 out of concern for the continuing survival and integrity of bushland and its dependent fauna. AABR NSW has a sister organisation in Western Australia (AABR WA) and sub-committees South East QLD/Northeast NSW and the Hunter region.
