Earthmob
Where do you go to find the skills, tools and mentors who can teach you how to mobilise the community, deal with the developer and get the politicians onside? This scenario, in different ways, in different communities, and with different people is replicated millions of times over across the planet. The problem is that every person who, when faced with this situation, chooses to act for Nature, so often ‘reinvents the wheel’, re-learning how to be effective.
There is nowhere that brings together the wisdom of past heroes and past experience to build upon what we’ve collectively learnt. The solution is to bring together the stories, wisdom, anecdotes and inspiration from the best and most effective environmental advocates and campaigners globally. To package this wisdom up in an attractive, accessible and fun format, and to provide the best online (& offline) training program globally for how to take effective action for Earth. A hub for resources, training and incubation. The goal is ultimately to make it easy for any person from any background from any corner of Earth to equip themselves with the skills needed to make an impact for Earth.
The Earthmob program has started by:
Mapped out a Saving Nature 101 training program
Conducted many hours of broadcast quality interviews with some of Australia’s most experienced and impactful environmental campaigners – such as Alec Marr (delivered millions of hectares of protected areas), Lyn Goldsworthy (key campaigner in delivering the Antarctic Treaty, Montreal protocol on CFCs), Virginia Young (leading international biodiversity, climate & forests advocate) and Paul Oosting (former head of GetUp Australia, experience corporate campaigner).
The 2025/26 program will seek to
conduct further interview work to collect the wisdom and stories of some of the world’s most impactful and experienced environmental campaigners
package up this interview work into a series of short training videos, articles, podcasts and materials into a completed Saving Nature 101 training program
establish Earthmob’s Incubator program, to foster the next generation of leaders

Conservation Stories Program
The conservation stories program focuses on providing practical support, skills, training and expert help to these local people and groups to present their place or issue and their conservation work well.
Kids & Nature Program
The Kuno Foundation’s Kids & Nature program seeks to support local communities, people and group engaged in promoting childhood connection with, understanding about and commitment to Nature. This has started with a beautiful project that has evolved out of our work with the school, teachers and community groups on Bruny Island – the Bruny Kids & Nature page.
Life on Earth fund
The challenge is to dream big for the future of life on Earth, to build ambitious landscape scale thinking for the conservation of Nature, and to back this with mapping, science, and a strategic program of small, medium and larger long-term grants targeted at the most effective local groups to build their capacity to deliver.
Nature Networks Program
The problem is that groups often act in isolation, meaning there is huge potential impact that is unmet. The solution is to provide a “Collective Impact” backbone support role for Nature networks regionally, globally and on specific issues. This is starting small focussing on the ‘Saving Nature 101’ task of networking and building capacity for the most effective existing groups in pilot regions and assisting them with presenting Nature’s needs and stories beautifully.
