Nature Conservation Council’s 2017 Bushfire Conference - Sydney
Primary tabs
The Nature Conservation Council of NSW is proud to present our 11th Biennial Bushfire Conference - Fire, Fauna and Ferals: from backyards to bush. This multi-disciplinary conference will explore how fire management can support ecological values across the landscape, from our backyards through to the bushland interface and beyond.
The program will examine the interactions between fire and fauna across a range of ecosystems and look at integrated approaches to managing fire, native fauna and flora, weeds and pest animals.
Building on themes from previous conferences, we will continue to showcase on-ground fire and restoration projects and Aboriginal burning initiatives.
This conference is an opportunity to contribute to discussions on how to move beyond current fire management approaches that aim to minimise environmental harm and towards approaches that help protect, support and restore ecological values.
Date: 30 May - 1 June 2017
Venue: NSW Teachers' Federation Conference Centre, Sydney
