The Department for Environment and Water (DEW) aims to help South Australians conserve, sustain and prosper.
Our vision is to create a thriving state built on sound stewardship of our environment and water.
Our work is critical to South Australia’s social, environmental and economic prosperity.
The way we manage, conserve, and sustain our environment and cultural resources is vital for the wellbeing of all South Australians.
We manage our national parks, botanic gardens and heritage places for their intrinsic value and for people’s benefit and enjoyment now and into the future.
We are an authority on the state’s environment and natural resources, helping community, industry, and government make good long-term decisions.
We drive the sustainable development of South Australia’s natural resources and heritage, to deliver economic prosperity and a vibrant and healthy society.

Green Adelaide is South Australia’s first dedicated government urban environmental organisation. They are focused on the practical greening of metropolitan Adelaide through restoring natural environments amidst urban sprawl, rewilding places that are surrounded by thousands of residents, connecting people with nature through education and events, as well as embedding Aboriginal traditional practices in their work. They have a vision of a cooler, greener, wilder and more climate-resilient Adelaide that celebrates the city’s unique culture. For more, visit: greenadelaide.sa.gov.au

Established in 1981, Nature Foundation is an apolitical not-for-profit NGO that provides evidence-based conservation work in Australia.

As a leading conservation organisation and private land conservatory in South Australia, Nature Foundation invests in conserving and protecting Australia’s unique biodiversity, precious landscapes, and native flora and fauna to ensure their survival for future generations.

For over 40 years Nature Foundation has been committed to using science-led solutions to tackle biodiversity challenges, engage with community, address knowledge gaps, protect habitats, and save native species.

Nature Foundation offers environmental consultancy services and investment in a broad portfolio of activities, including scientific research, education in conservation, conservation land management, and increasing the area protected and managed for nature conservation.

Nature Foundation own and manage nine nature reserves across South Australia, comprising over 500,000 hectares in which it implements conservation projects designed to bring biodiversity benefits and protection. This land encompasses almost 43% of all private nature reserves in South Australia and 15% nationally. In total the organisation has assisted in protecting over 1.15 million hectares of South Australian landscape and wetlands.

To ensure best outcomes for restoring and protecting habitat, Nature Foundation partners with universities, community groups, Traditional Custodians, government departments, business from all sectors, schools, landholders, and volunteers, who are aligned by a shared desire to realise secure biodiversity and a thriving eco-system future.

Commitment to ecological science is at the forefront of Nature Foundation. Since 2000, Nature Foundation has awarded 464 grants in nature science to a total value of more than 1.9 million, underpinning their commitment to a greater knowledge of Australian ecosystems.

TERN is Australia's ecosystem research infrastructure, delivering standardised, quality-assured data on our land and coastal ecosystems.


Our consortium of publicly funded agencies monitors environmental change across Australia 24/7, providing open-access data that supports research from local to global scales.


TERN's long-term observations and standardised collection methods enable researchers to:
· Track ecosystem responses to climate and land use change
· Develop evidence-based conservation strategies
· Translate environmental science into actionable management insights


All TERN data is freely available to researchers. Visit tern.org.au to explore our data portal, field sites and collaborative opportunities.

The Atlas of Living Australia (ALA) is a collaborative, digital, open infrastructure that pulls together Australian biodiversity data from multiple sources, making it accessible and reusable.

The ALA helps to create a more detailed picture of Australia’s biodiversity for scientists, policy makers, environmental planners and land managers, industry and the general public, and enables them to work more efficiently.

The ALA is the Australian node and a full voting member of GBIF – the Global Biodiversity Information Facility – an international network and data infrastructure funded by the world’s governments and aimed at providing anyone, anywhere, open access to data about all types of life on Earth.

The Environment Institute is driving transformational change by connecting the knowledge and thought leadership of our researchers to the world’s most critical and complex environmental issues. Our vision is to safeguard the environment now for future generations. We work to deliver the knowledge needed to halt and reverse environmental decline and ensure a future that is healthy, diverse and equitable. We work to understand the pressures facing biodiversity, water and ecosystem services, and to deliver solutions with partners in terrestrial, coastal and marine ecosystems across natural, production and urban landscapes. With expertise in both environmental and social sustainability and a research translation pathway that sees the integration and flow of the sciences and public health to social sciences, education and law, our research has created change across communities, governments and industries.

GHD is a global, multidisciplinary professional services network providing clients with integrated solutions across advisory, digital, engineering, architecture, environmental and construction. Our future-focused, innovative approaches connect and support communities around the world, building resiliency and sustainability for generations to come.

We are fascinated by the breadth and diversity of life and living systems, from the building blocks of life to entire ecosystems. Understanding life allows us to address many of the challenges facing humanity today, including the need to produce healthier food, protect human populations from disease and protect ecosystems from climate change, habitat loss and degradation.

Our students learn directly from world-leading researchers who explore biological phenomena and global challenges, using microbes, plants, animals, and fungi. We are dedicated to nurturing the next generation of bioscientists and sharing our passion for biology with our community.
