About

The Society for Ecological Restoration Australasia (SERA) is a neutral, independent, non-profit organization that connects restoration industries across Australasia and through the peak international body for restoration (SER) globally.

SERA is infused with the energy of over 200 members – individuals and organizations who are actively engaged in ecologically-sensitive repair and management of ecosystems through an unusually broad array of experience, knowledge sets and cultural perspectives.

They are scientists, planners, administrators, ecological consultants, natural areas managers, growers, community activists, and volunteers, among others

Founded in 2011, SERA now boasts members in 17 countries, and provides restoration support throughout Australasia. This chapter expands the membership from the previous Australian Chapter (in operation for the preceding 12 years) to encompass all of Australasia. SERA dovetails with the other 12 SER chapters that serve the regions of Asia, North America, and Europe and their 2300 global members. The presence of the peak international body for restoration represents a milestone for Australasian industries in the region.

With SER (the parent body) recognized by public and private enterprises as the source for expertise on restoration science, practice and policy, SERA aims to further develop regional expertise and achieve its objectives through cooperation with partner organizations and the work of its Australasian membership.
