Landcare is a non-governmental community movement dedicated to preventing land degradation and achieving sustainable land management. It started in Victoria in the mid-1980s and spread rapidly to other states.

It consists of a network of local volunteer groups of which there are over 1700 in New South Wales alone. Each group works to find local solutions to local problems such as salinity, soil degradation, animal pests, weeds, vegetation loss, waterside erosion, poor water quality, coastal degradation and urban land degradation.
