WITLI - Water in the Landscape Initiative
This collaboration is called “The Upper-Namoi Water in the Landscape Initiative”, and may be referred to as the “WITLI”. Its purpose is to develop and facilitate collaborative projects, programs or initiatives to optimise economic, social and environmental value and sustainability of freshwater in upper-Namoi catchments, (roughly 250 metres or more above sea-level).
The Upper-Namoi Water in the Landscape Initiative is to be community (rather than expert or politician) led. The principal stakeholders are non-government landholder organisations, rural communities, and rural industries, and the University of New England as a provider of knowledge and supports, and as a stakeholder in research and other opportunities which may arise from WITLI activities. Local Governments, State or National Government agencies with a concern for the interests of the principal stakeholders may fully participate in this initiative. This statement is intentionally broad. The first general meeting of the entity shall happen between March 1st 2024 and April 30th 2024 at which the signatories may decide whether it should be replaced, amended or retained.
