Our Vision

MEPA is a community association which aims to protect the local environment and to promote awareness, understanding and enjoyment of it through education, discussion and community activities.  The Association was formed some years ago by committed and active members of the community who were concerned by the environmental decline they saw around them.  It continues to be active within the community with ongoing projects, and outside the community advocating to advance the Association's interests.

A major concern to many on the Range is the invasion of feral plants and animals into the surrounding bushland and much of MEPA's activity focusses on weeding, with feral animal eradication undertaken primarily by State and Local Government authorities. This focus on weeds involves a long term Strategic Weed Partnership across the southern D'Aguilar Ranges.

MEPA also lobbies and works with other SEQ groups and Local and State Government agencies to improve environmental practices in our area, and seek special protection for habitats, species and individual plants and animals in our area.

OUR VISION IS OUR HABITAT.
