“One of Dr Kowalczyk’s aims is to lobby the state government to introduce a Maribyrnong River Protection Act, which would make authorities more accountable for actions that affect the river…it would provide a framework to improve practices such as pollution management and greater environmental flows, and would bring Indigenous people into decision making.” (Read the full article by the Age

We are excited to announce that Dr. Nicole Kowalczyk has returned to our team as the Maribyrnong Officer!
We look forward to supporting efforts to protect and care for the Maribyrnong and welcome collaboration with the community, local governments and friends of groups in the area. For any enquiries please email
