The
Victorian Rainforest Network (VRN)
The Victorian Rainforest
Network (VRN) is an independent and politically unaligned network of
rainforest enthusiasts, researchers and activists with a shared interest
in rainforest conservation and education across Victoria.
Its primary aim
is to secure the effective conservation of threatened rainforests throughout
Victoria.
The VRN seeks to
realise its goals by:
1) facilitating
rapid information sharing among conservation groups involved with or
interested in rainforest issues
2) promoting independent
research into rainforest threats and appropriate policy and management
responses
3) conduct educational
and community awareness campaigns- which include expert guided field
trips, flora and fauna surveys, a professional webpage and regular public
presentations
4) politically engage
government and forest managers to ensure all Rainforest Sites of Significance
are effectively protected
5) support rainforest
fundraising activities
