The Green Adelaide Branch, Department for Environment and Water, provides support to the Green Adelaide Board and seeks to facilitate and deliver the Board's Business Plan. The Board is established by the Minister for Environment and Water under the Landscapes SA Act 2019 and seeks to create Adelaide as a cool, green and water-sensitive city that encourages engagement with the natural environment from the urban community of 1.3 million people. Green Adelaide delivers a "hills to sea" integrated catchment approach to promote the biodiversity, coastal values, nature-connectedness and sustainable use of water resources across the metropolitan area. Partnerships and collaboration with all levels of government and non-government organisations, the community and Kaurna is at the heart of delivering the programs of Green Adelaide.
