Our project aims to create a platform that connects Griffith University students with their local Landcare or Coastcare volunteering groups. We believe that for these groups to achieve greater results in green space restoration, they need stronger partnerships with universities and schools to help recruit more young volunteers. By identifying and collaborating with local restoration groups that need volunteers, this project serves as a bridge between the university and community-based environmental groups. Through partnerships with Griffith academic programs, student clubs, and wellbeing services, we promote volunteering opportunities via our Conserve and Connect social media platform. Updates are shared regularly, outlining what each group is working on, how students can get involved, and when and where they meet. These updates are tailored to young students, encouraging participation as a fun, social, and meaningful activity during the semester. By implementing this initiative at Griffith University, we aim to create a model that can be replicated by other institutions, fostering stronger university-community partnerships and deeper student engagement in environmental restoration and wellbeing. Ultimately, we hope to promote individual student wellbeing by encouraging connection with nature, community, and purpose through environmental action.
