Throughout history, amazing battles for change have been won, from women winning the right to vote, to the end of apartheid in South Africa, to unions winning the 40 hour week.

Similar principles apply to any organised attempt to change something – including environmental change. Using the lessons from successful (and unsuccessful) campaigns for change, we can achieve the seemingly impossible.

This website is an initiative of the Nature Conservation Council’s EASE Project, funded by the NSW Environmental Trust, as part of the Integrated Sustainability Education Partnership program, under the NSW Government’s ‘Our Environment It’s a Living Thing’ campaign.

The EASE Project is about bringing community groups together to strengthen and inspire each others work, build skills and improve access to support so that community environment groups and committed individuals can continue to be leaders in creating an ecologically sustainable NSW.
