Stonequarry: grassy woodland restoration project
by IVP Australia
IVP is pleased to announce that we have finally published our booklet. It took a few years and a lot of angst to complete it even though it is only 66 pages.
This is the culmination of a five-year project, carried out by a series of workcamps, both long and short, which included workshops with the local primary school children. We are very proud of both the work done at the site and the production of this booklet. It contains gorgeous photos of volunteers at work, before and after photos of the restoration work, birds and plants endemic to the site. It also has some history of the cemetery and surrounding areas, why this ecosystem matters, who was involved and how the work was carried out. An introduction by a highly respected ecologist, survey by an ornithologist, plant identification by a grassland expert, and a visit from Indigenous Elder all helped inform the booklet.
Unfortunately for the moment it is only in hard copy, so If you are interested to buy this booklet please get in contact with IVP Australia admin@ivp.org.au Hopefully very soon we can get the online version!!!

SCI is leaving X
As an organisation that values peace, inclusion, nonviolence and human rights, and like many like minded organisations did, we decided to stop using X as a social media platform for our communication. With the leadership and actions of its CEO, the platform has become a danger to democracy and the values that we hold dear, supporting an unchecked spread of misinformation and hate speech. While...
