The Natural Heritage Trust (NHT) is the Australian Government’s key investment platform for natural resource management.
The NHT funds programs that support:
- natural resource management
- sustainable agriculture
- environmental protection.
The NHT was established under the Natural Heritage Trust of Australia Act 1997 (NHT Act) and has funded many programs across Australia for almost 30 years.
We jointly administer the NHT with the Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water.
