Welcome to our mailing list!

We are thrilled to have you with us as we begin our work to make nature connection a national priority in Australia.

At Common Nature, we know that our relationship with nature is a vital part of a healthy, satisfied life. A recent national survey of over 4,000 Australians found that: Nature connection is just as important as income in determining life satisfaction (Sollis et al. 2024).

However, we are facing a unique challenge: while Australia is home to some of the world’s most iconic wildlife, recent research has found that: Australians’ connectedness to nature is very low compared to other countries (we are in the bottom third of 61 countries surveyed around the world) (Richardson et al. 2026).

We aim to change this.

By signing up to updates you can expect occasional, easy to digest updates on our work to bring nature connection into the heart of Australian communities.

We’re excited to share this journey with you.

Warmly,

Beth Rickwood
Board Chair & Co-founder, Common Nature
