Creating sustainable, profitable farms doesn’t happen overnight. It takes years of planning. That’s why Landcare Victoria's next webinar is bringing in AgVic expert Alison Kelly, to answer the question "now what?" and share actions being taken across the state to lower on-farm emissions while remaining productive and profitable. Many of these actions also build farm resilience and can help farmers adapt to an increasingly extreme climate. Alison will be joined by Victorian farmers, who will talk through the actions they’re taking now and plan to take in the future, to adapt and thrive.

Volunteers are the lifeblood of the community sector, whether they’re sizzling sausages at the local fair, coordinating vital fundraisers, or providing vision and leadership in the boardroom.

In this webinar, we'll help set you up for success with your volunteers, covering: Proper record keeping How to communicate with volunteers What policies you'll need What legal checks you should expect from volunteers How to keep your volunteers.
