Investment Planning for Impact

Stage One

Investment Planning for Impact started with Stage One co-design workshops held in 2024 across five Key Impact Areas.

Reports:

• Rural Communities Social and Cultural Resilience
• Enhancing and Preserving the Natural Environment
• Ground and Canopy Cover
• Soil Health
• Water and Water Use

For each impact area, southern NSW stakeholders identified issues, opportunities, or problems affecting their region and mapped what success looked like, identifying what needs to be done in the next four years to move towards success.

Please note:

• A new Key Impact Area - Resilient Farming Systems and Decisions - has been confirmed in 2025 which is focused on helping farmers to navigate drought and climate challenges and make informed decisions that build farm system resilience and profitability.
• Investment planning for our sixth Key Impact Area First Nations Social and Cultural Resilience is in progress and will be led by our First Nations Reference Group / Advisory Committee.
