What it takes to be a Partner
Express interest
Contact us for a chat about how your organisation can get involved. Our modest Partner fees are tiered according to the type and size of member organisations and are payable on an annual basis.
Send a representative
Each Partner nominates a representative to attend and contribute to Partnership meetings and forums, and to manage the connections, relationships, and opportunities generated through our network.
Contribute if you can
Contributions of environmental data to the annual Waterways Report Card are encouraged but are not a requirement for membership. All insights and ideas about our local waterways are valued by the Partnership.

The Healthy Waters Partnership for the Dry Tropics plays a vital role in bringing stakeholders together, creating a collaborative platform where everyone can contribute to a unified understanding of water quality health in our ecosystems. Only by working together can we identify key priorities and focus our efforts where they will have the greatest impact on the wellbeing of our waterways."
