Introducing Our Newest Team Member!
We are excited to welcome Mike Clark to the Landcare NT team, as our new Project Manager for the Darwin Catchment Waterways Project!
Mike is an experienced and passionate environmental management professional, with an impressive track record spanning over 30 years focusing primarily on biodiversity conservation and other natural resource management.
Mike trained in Natural Resource Management at Roseworthy College and moved to Darwin in 1980. He was lucky to be involved in some ground-breaking surveys, including the 1:1 million vegetation map of the NT working for the then Conservation Commission of the NT. In 1990 he started work for Greening Australia in the golden era of the Decade of Landcare. He was the first to trial direct seeding of trees and shrubs in the Top End and initiated farm forestry and native grass seed harvesting and re-establishment in the NT. He spent many years at Greening Australia and in his Operations Manager and CEO roles helped build it into the NT’s largest community environmental organisation.
For the past 8 years Mike has been Principal at Top End Conservation Management developing and managing NRM projects across the NT and WA. Mike is married with two grown up kids and likes fishing, gardening, landcaring, travelling and photography. He is also a long-suffering Carlton supporter and looking forward to the finals in 2024!
Anyone who is interested in engaging in the Darwin Catchment Waterways Project is welcome to get in touch with Mike at [email protected].
