Thank you for choosing to support Conservation Week
Conservation Week is a celebration of Western Australia's unique environment and promotes sustainable living for the future.
Since its initiation in 2005 Conservation Week has been growing in popularity within the Western Australian community with over 40 events registered across WA. Conservation Week events have included: conferences, tree planting days, field trips, art displays, photography exhibitions, wetland rehabilitation, open days, workshops, talks, bike rides, clean-up days, festivals plus much more.
Conservation Week events allow individuals, conservation groups and organisations to rejoice and appreciate WA's unique marine eco-system, forests and wildlife while learning about relevant issues affecting them.
An important objective of this week is to raise funds to support the work of the Conservation Council and, thorough the council, support the work of its member groups. We depend on the generosity of environmentally aware individuals to help us promote and protect WA's precious environment. With your support we can implement genuine change for the future.
