Based in Gippsland, Victoria, Robyn brings both passion and skill to the role of Community and Stewardship Manager, having worked in the conservation field for 38 years, including roles with Trust for Nature, the Department of Natural Resources & Environment and East Gippsland Shire Council.

During her 28 years with Trust for Nature, Robyn played a major role in supporting and inspiring the thousands of landholders in Victoria who have chosen to enter into voluntary covenants to protect biodiversity on their properties. She was instrumental in securing permanent protection for nearly 6,000 hectares of biodiverse habitat in East Gippsland, and in working hand-in-hand with landholders to establish long-term stewardship plans for these areas.

Now, at BioDiversity Legacy, Robyn continues this mission by supporting landholders and communities to navigate the permanent protection options available to them, and to establish robust stewardship arrangements that ensure land is appropriately cared for over the long term.
