We are a grass-roots organisation dedicated to supporting the Melbourne conservation community. We do this by strengthening networks, sharing knowledge and drawing attention to local conservation action.
SCB Greater Melbourne celebrates and acknowledges the Traditional Owners and custodians of the land on which we work, the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nation. We pay our respects to their Elders past and present and acknowledge First Nations people as our first scientists.
