The 2007 Queensland Rainforest Forum was inspired by the 1998 WWF SEQ Rainforest Recovery Conference that I had previously convened, and attracted over 260 delegates. I delivered an introductory keynote presentation and facilitated the wrap-up session.
In 2003-04, I coordinated the Upper Ma Ma Creek Rainforest Restoration Project, which brought together scientific knowledge and local knowledge to carry out weed control trials to assist the conservation of endangered rainforest remnants in the Lockyer Valley in south-east Queensland.
I initiated, wrote, compiled, and published the first three issues of South-East Queensland Rainforest Recovery News in 1997-98 to provide updates on the initiation of one of Australia’s first multi-species recovery planning projects, the South-East Queensland Rainforest Recovery Project.
I initiated, organised, and convened conference the 1998 WWF South-East Queensland Rainforest Recovery Conference, which brought together a wide range of stakeholders to share their knowledge of rainforest conservation issues and the range of recovery work underway. One of Australia’s first multi-species recovery planning projects was subsequently initiated.
