About us


This is what we’re fighting against! ‘Huts’ on the Three Capes Track during the construction phase. The development fundamentally altered the wild character of Tasmania’s East Coast’s only recognised wilderness area. Image credit: Rob Blakers.


Protect Our National Parks (ponp.org)
is a space to keep track of proposals for private large-scale construction projects in national parks and other public land across Australia. It gives an overview of the problem, showing the results of the National Parks’ Service shift of focus from protection to profit. The site also helps community organisations battling these proposals by providing a central space to host information, educate the public and media, and monitor the status of these projects.
