**About us - The Alinytjara Wilu**r**ara Landscape Board**

Through the _Landscape South Australia Act 2019_ (Landscape Act), eight regional Landscape Boards and Green Adelaide work with partners to deliver practical, on-ground programs to manage landscapes. They invest public funds into regional priority issues as well as leveraging Australian Government funding towards managing and protecting our productive and natural landscapes.

The all-Aboriginal membership of the Alinytjara Wilurara Landscape Board is comprised of respected leaders from across the region. Most of this region is Aboriginal Freehold Title, including the Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara (APY) Lands, Maralinga Tjarutja Lands, Yalata Lands, as well as the Far West Coast Native Title Lands.

Our Board proudly partners with the communities in our region to help manage land, water, pest plants and animals, and biodiversity. Support includes Indigenous ranger investment, technical support and joint project delivery.

The Alinytjara Wilurara (AW) region covers 26% of South Australia in the remote north-west of the state, an area of more than a quarter of a million square kilometres. The boundary of the AW Landscape region extends from the Northern Territory to the Southern Ocean and from the Western Australian border almost to Coober Pedy.
