PLC16 was held 23-25 November 2016 in Melbourne and hosted by Trust for Nature (Victoria). 

PLC16 provided delegates, presenters and supporters with a unique opportunity to exchange information, discuss new research and initiatives, and identify ways to work together for conservation on private land. The program explored how we can maximise our impact and achieve so much more through partnerships and collaborations. Presentations from industry leaders, practitioners and strategic partners explored innovations, opportunities and achievements in private land conservation.

Keynote speaker, Laura Johnson, Director of the International Land Conservation Network, provided an inspiring international perspective. Three fantastic pre-conference workshops were held on Wednesday 23 November and bird watching comedian and conservation advocate Sean Dooley entertained delegates at the conference dinner on Thursday night.
