The Great Southern Forest

The Great Southern Forest proposal would protect important forests, wildlife, rivers, and cultural areas that are deeply significant to Aboriginal communities.

The proposal would help the region cope with growing pressure from climate change, development, severe bushfires and the ongoing loss of plants and animals, helping nature recover and remain resilient into the future.

More information on our the Great Southern Forest Proposal will be available soon.


Protect Your Patch

The Great Southern Forest is a big vision, but its real heart is found in the smaller, local patches that people love. All across the region, communities are stepping up to look after the patches of forest that matter most to them.

Is there a patch of forest that is special to you?

Add your story alongside other special places both inside the Great Southern Forest and across the state. It’s a way to show off the places we love and the local groups working together to protect them.
