The Conservation Ecology Centre is a nationally registered charity and non-profit ecological research and conservation organisation dedicated to a healthy and resilient Otways landscape.
Generating knowledge to nurture Country, Conservation Ecology Centre partners with traditional owners, research institutions, NGOs, government agencies and community to better understand and protect threatened species and ecosystems by conducting vital research and restoring habitat.
Our unifying, collaborative approach has 3 essential functions:
• Facilitating vital research to increase understanding of the Otways landscape.
• Developing and delivering solutions to the most urgent conservation challenges facing the region.
• Providing meaningful experiences for people to engage with nature, thereby building awareness and appreciation of wildlife and wild places.
Being based in the beautiful Otway Ranges (on the Great Ocean Road) provides a unique opportunity to facilitate research, and deliver programs, in one of Australia’s truly wild places.
Current projects include: studies of the effects of fire on Long-nosed Potoroos and other small native mammals; koala woodland habitat restoration; and the tracking and removal of introduced pest species, such as foxes, cats, pigs and deer, from the landscape.
All projects are chosen for their potential to have a broad application and to benefit wildlife and environments locally, across Australian landscapes, and around the world.
Our vision is a healthy and resilient Otways cared for forever. Our purpose is to generate knowledge to nurture the Otways landscape.
