Australian Association of Bush Regenerators
Many ecosystems across Australia were severely impacted from the 2019-20 bushfires due to the effects of prolonged drought. While extensive areas of vegetation are recovering well, others remain in trouble. Despite being challenged by COVID, the Australian Association of Bush Regenerators (AABR) successfully managed to develop partnerships to support volunteers who were undertaking restoration works, by helping them assess the impact their activities may have on the bushland. Through their First Aid for Burned Bushland (FABB) initiative and supported by a range of sponsors, AABR developed resources, including videos and webinars, to provide best practice guidance for assisting in the recovery of bushland and matched experienced bush regenerators to sites in need.
