Experts out and about in the BBB
The LDC project would not be possible without the help of its delivery partners and collaborations with other organisations and government agencies. A number of them were out and about in the BBB in September.
LDC’s partner organisations provide expertise in grazing land management, landholder extension and engagement, water quality science, social science, gully remediation, monitoring and evaluation, and program governance.
