The Green Army in Griffith
The Green Army is an Australian Government initiative that taps into local knowledge and supports grassroots action to meet local environmental and heritage conservation challenges.
By participating in projects that deliver tangible benefits for the environment, Green Army is a great opportunity for young Australians aged 17-24 years to gain training and experience in environmental and heritage conservation fields, which will help them to enter the workforce or improve their career opportunities. In Griffith, NSW, the Green Army will improve biodiversity values and the health of the river red gum riparian zone and Endangered Ecological Communities in the Murrumbidgee valley. This project will commence in early August and last for approximately 23 weeks.
Green Army is open to any young person aged 17 - 24: school leavers, gap year students, university students seeking practical experience to support their theoretical knowledge and young people who are looking for employment are encouraged to apply. Participants will be paid a Green Army allowance determined by school achievement level and years since leaving school.
