Dr Kate Andrews has decades of experience in integrated NRM across diverse areas of Australia. Kate worked to establish the Lake Eyre Basin Coordinating Group and became its first CEO. She was Land & Water Australia’s first Knowledge and Adoption Manager, and established the Knowledge for Regional NRM program. Kate also chaired and reformed Territory NRM, and has participated in national committees and Boards including the Australian Landcare Council, CSIRO Sustainable Agriculture Flagship Advisory Committee, Agrifutures Australia Board and the inaugural Future Drought Fund Advisory Committee.
Kate is working to ensure the essential contribution of regional NRM organisations and their partners is recognised, resourced and scaled-up, including through innovative mechanisms. The role of integrated landscape-scale planning and delivery is more vital than ever in managing competing land-uses and climate adaptation.
