Shining a light on
Kurt Jones, award nominee for this year's State and Territory Landcare Awards and the founder of
Co-Exist Australia, a non-profit volunteer youth led movement to inspire the next generation in conservation, represents the kind of individual and groups eligible for nominations.
Co-Exist engages young people in conservation through community initiative teams across the country. These teams are committed to organising clean ups, tree planting, recycling projections, leadership training and education programs in schools.
Celebrating Australians who actively contribute to the wellbeing of the environment, Kurt said "The Co-Exist mission is incredibly important to me because I believe that if thousands more young people participate in community conservation to protect the environment, the world will be dramatically changed, benefitting both people and the planet.
If you are someone creating change in your community, stand-up and share your work with the country! It isn't about self-promotion, instead, you are inspiring a nation to do better."
Get in quick! Nominations close March 1st
