The Noosa Biosphere Reserve Foundation – Projects

The Noosa Biosphere Reserve works through the collaboration of the Noosa Biosphere Reserve Foundation (The Foundation) and the Noosa Community Biosphere Association (NCBA). 

In July 2015 the Foundation issued its first call to the Noosa community for ‘big ideas’ that would contribute to its objectives, offering supporting grants to develop significant and innovative conservation proposals.

The aim was to enhance Noosa’s reputation as a place where people care deeply about where and how they live and are prepared to do something about it.

It defined triple bottom-line aspirations – to enhance the environment; realise the shire’s economic potential; and engage the community.
