Australia’s diverse landscapes, culture and rich biodiversity offers a wide variety of environmental and community social impact projects.
Make a difference in your own backyard while also experiencing the diverse and stunning landscapes on offer in Australia. Home to between 7-10% of all species that occur on earth, Australia’s terrestrial and marine biodiversity is important both nationally and globally, establishing an obligation for its conservation and sustainable use.
Australia’s native vegetation is also extraordinarily diverse, rich and complex, with about 85% of Australia’s plant species endemic to the continent.
GLE projects in Australia are established and completed in partnership with local organisations. We work directly with the local representatives, local NGO’s and government bodies, where applicable, to provide the resources, facilities and programs that are required to assist in those communities.
