Partners for Gippsland’s Environment
Gippsland Environmental Agencies (GEA) is a forum for the Managing Directors/Regional Director/CEO of fourteen environmental agencies in Gippsland to meet to strengthen coordination, collaboration, and accountability, reduce duplication, and provide clarity on roles and responsibilities between key partners.
GEA brings the agencies together to work to improve the management of land, water and biodiversity resources across Gippsland.
The 14 member agencies employ close to 1,200 people across Gippsland.

Partnerships in action
Powlett River/Kugerungmome
West Gippsland CMA partnered with Bunurong Land Council to deliver the Powlett River/Kugerungmome Cultural Heritage Management Project.
The highlight to date was the hosting of a partnership session for West Gippy CMA, Parks Victoria, Trust for Nature, Bass Coast and South Gippsland Landcare Networks to learn from their On Country team.
Over 40 staff across the agencies learned about the Cultural Heritage at the mouth of the Powlett/Kugerungmome River.
