About
In 2019, the Biodiversity Managers Network (BMN) voted to become a Victorian branch of AABR. As the Victorian branch grows in strength and stature, we will be able to support and increase awareness of The National Restoration Standards as well as implement accreditation and access relevant training for bush regeneration practitioners.
The AAR Vic Committee are a diverse group of experienced practitioners encompassing all areas of bush regeneration including local government, private contractors, restoration businesses, the not for profit sector and training institutions.
The AABR Vic Committee meets online every even month on the 4th Thursday evening 7:30-9pm and is Chaired by Rob Scott .
Committee members are Alex Milicic (Chair), Rob Scott , Craig McGrath, Sharon Mason, Steve Llewellyn, Joab Wilson , Kylie Robertson , Jeff Smith, Anton Vigenser, Matt Hall, Gidja-Lee Walker, Lincoln Kern, Dan Walker, associate member Max Campbell (FNCV rep).
