Wilderness Society

The Wilderness Society describes itself as "a national, community-based, environmental advocacy organisation whose purpose is protecting, promoting and restoring wilderness and natural processes across Australia for the survival and ongoing evolution of life on Earth."

TWS works through the avenues of public education and empowerment, advocacy and negotiation, and desk and field research.   TWS is politically unaligned, but uses democratic processes to maximise wise conservation decisions.

Established in 1976, TWS consists of a National Organisation and a number of Campaign Centres located in all State capital cities (except Darwin), and in the ACT and a number of regional centres.
