WildEyre: Practical Conservation Action Planning for Western Eyre Peninsula
WildEyre is a landscape-scale Conservation Action Planning (CAP) process that aims to identify natural assets and their associated threats or pressures, plan for realistic conservation and management activities in order to rehabilitate degraded systems, conserve and manage existing systems as well as to reinstate natural communities and ecosystems where they have been lost from the natural environment.
The focus is on a holistic approach to land management, not just for conservation outcomes in the short and medium-term, but for a sustainable long-term environment. Conservation Action Planning is an iterative, adaptive process that enables constant recruitment of new information and ideas to move with the dynamic nature of natural systems.
The unique partnerships formed through the ongoing development of WildEyre will provide greater opportunities for investment in the region from local, national and possibly international investors.
The use of a well refined and iterative planning mechanism to plan for the future management of the WildEyre area will see the ability to include new information and methods of rehabilitation without the need to develop entirely new plans into the future.
