Our Team
People For Nature harnesses the power of people and the strength of collaboration and science to take meaningful steps to create a more resilient planet and sustainable future.
We’re on a mission to empower all Australians to actively protect biodiversity and build climate resilience. We champion a citizen-centred approach, empowering communities to take action through education, action and science. Nature belongs to everyone, and we share a collective responsibility to safeguard it for future generations.
Founded by three Certified Environmental Practitioners (CEnvP): Audrey Barucchi, Dr Fanny De Busserolles, and Olivia Woosnam, People For Nature brings together a group of like-minded individuals and organisations. Together we’re all working towards the goal of keeping the planet habitable for all.

Ambassadors are the heart of our initiative, running workshops year-round and reaching people of all ages, from schools and communities to businesses. Together, we’re helping to bridge knowledge gaps, inspire action, and create a more sustainable future for all.
About Our Ambassador Program
Our Ambassador Program is part of a rapidly growing movement, with ambassadors across the country working to spread climate and biodiversity education, action and impact.
