We gratefully acknowledge the Foundation for Rural & Regional Renewal for funding that enabled the rebuild and redesign of this site in 2023.
This collaborative Ecoportal website was first published in March 2012.

A small group of enthusiastic volunteers currently administer the site to keep it relevant, current and effective. We hope and anticipate that the website will continue to evolve as new ideas emerge and different needs are identified.
Ecoportal is volunteer run. We also appreciate the past assistance of the Border Trust, Parklands Albury Wodonga and Murray Local Land Services (in conjunction with funding from the Australian government) who have helped us to pay for web development, hosting and promotional materials.
