Environment Victoria
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Environment Victoria is an Australian not-for-profit, charitable group and Victoria's peak non-government environment organisation. It works in collaboration with over 150 groups Australia-wide to protect Victoria’s environment and relies on financial support from donors, members, grants and sponsorships.
[edit] History
The group was originally formed in 1969 as the Conservation Council of Victoria as a result of a successful campaign to save the Little Desert National Park from subdivision. In 1994, the organisation changed name to Environment Victoria to reflect the broader range of issues it now deals with.
