Welcome to the Members' section of the Conservation Council of WA website. Our Member Groups are the heart of the Conservation Council and pivotal to our role as the State's peak Council of environment groups. The collective strength that comes from a united and connected membership enables us to provide leadership and be a voice for Western Australia's environment.
Some of the highlights and achievements this year have included:
- Forming a coalition of civil society partners (including UnionsWA, Uniting Church, WA Council of Social Services, Living Smart and the Australian Youth Climate Coalition) to win a significant grant to promote the benefits of a clean energy future in WA;
- Establishing a formal Compact with the WA Government for the first time, recognising CCWA’s advocacy role.
- Building our active supporters in the WA community to nearly 40,000.
- Announcement of long-awaited marine parks in the Capes region and the Kimberley;
- The rejection of two coal mining proposals (including one proposed for Margaret River);
- The State Government abandoning its plans to build a major road through the Fitzgerald River National Park, one of our most precious wilderness areas;
- Keeping WA nuclear free for another year!
With your continued help CCWA can continue doing what we do, being a voice for the environment and working with our member groups and the wider community to stand up for the environment and promote a sustainable future for Western Australia.

The Forum is designed as a discussion site where people can hold conversations in the form of posted messages. A discussion forum is hierarchical or tree-like in structure: a forum can contain a number of sub forums, each of which may have several topics. Within a forum's topic, each new discussion started is called a thread, and can be replied to by as many people as so wish.
You can now view descriptions on individual member groups of the Conservation Council. Within these descriptions you will find a paragraph on your member group as well as contact and location details. If you do not have any information on your group within the link please email a short paragraph on what you do and what you are trying to achieve along with contact details to jason.fernie@ccwa.org.au
Thank you for your continued support of the Conservation Council of WA.
