At the low degradation end, approaches focusing on assisting natural
WHAT IS AABR? Incorporated in NSW in 1986, Australian Association of Bush Regenerators (AABR) is an association with several hundred members all over Australia. Its aim is to promote the study and practice of ecological restoration, and foster and encourage effective management of natural areas by qualified people, based on sound ecological principles. AABR activities are motivated by a deep sense of respect and awe for the complexity, intrinsic values and beauty of locally adapted ecosystems, and a desire to see them conserved in perpetuity and brought back to health if degraded by human impact.
WHAT DOES AABR DO? • Engages and supports programs that facilitate volunteers in ecological restoration • Offers industry accreditation in assisted natural regeneration • Manages an Accreditation Scheme for bush regeneration practitioners — valued by landholders/employers as recognition of competency • Presents talks, seminars and field trips • Manages a website with information about bush regeneration, news and current events, and a help page • Produces regenTV, a video platform of inspirational ecological restoration projects from around Australia and internationally, talks by experts in diverse aspects of ecological restoration, field trips, seminars etc. aabr.org.au/regentv. It is also on Youtube.
Degradation of ecosystems varies on a spectrum from low to high. regeneration are most appropriate. At the higher degradation end, a reconstruction approach will be required, unless sufficiently long timeframes are available for natural recolonisation. All approaches to restoration should aim to achieve very high levels of functional and structural similarity with the pre-existing ecosystem. Bush regeneration is an Australian term for a form of ecological restoration involving a range of treatments — including the skilled removal of weeds — applied in a manner that triggers natural regeneration of surviving, dormant or nearby species. AABR is proud to retain the term bush regeneration in its name, to acknowledge the pioneering contribution of this practice to the development of ecological restoration. For more information see AABR’s Guiding Principles for Ecological Restoration and Rehabilitation at aabr.org.au
THE SEVEN DO'S OF ECOLOGICAL RESTORATION • Address threats and causes of degradation • Clearly identify project goals • Soundly assess sites prior to deciding which restoration approach to use • Consider all components of an ecological community • Skillfully apply treatments, ensuring follow-up and maintenance • Monitor to see if treatments are achieving their goals and adapt treatments as necessary • Develop sustaining partnerships
• Provides the Bushjobs service via the AABR website

Humanity lost the plot during and after the First Industrial Revolution. We have just entered the Fourth Industrial Revolution, and there is now an 'awakening' occurring driven by the urgency to act on climate change. Our message is: "We have the technology to grow plants anywhere, so let's get on with it." Green city development will continue to be commercially driven due to economic rationales. Cities with more plants have a greater liveability, are aesthetically pleasing, have better air quality, more diversity, less pollution, and therefore have a healthier, happier population. This translates into a productive workforce, higher realty value, and greater national wealth. If your company or career is associated with plants — join us.
