The Odonata 7C's
Corridors
Native vegetation conservation and regeneration produce better outcomes through creating corridors, through on site, greater region and statewide corridor contemplation and partner collaboration.
Climate
Implementing carbon mitigation and sequestration strategies, with a view to carbon positive outcomes and climate adaptation planning for heat mapping and solutions for other climate change impacts.
Creatures
Focus on priority species to help inspire and focus attention, with the intention of supporting the ecosystems. This includes mammals, birds and insects.
Culture
We seek to work alongside Traditional Owners to find solutions that meet their needs. We believe that through collaboration on land-management we can help support self-determination outcomes.
Community
Building and supporting community programs and inspiring communities, highlighting that there are solutions and opportunities to participate in projects.
Capital appreciation
Strategies to generate financial results that are in line with returns expected by investors for non-impact related investments and ensuring capital value is not depleted through the Odonata 7Cs' principles.
Cashflow
It is not wise to rely on capital appreciation alone and so we focus on cashflow opportunities and feasibility, including those through the emerging natural capital markets.
Our statement of intent
Odonata respects and honours Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders past, present and future. We acknowledge the stories, traditions, living cultures and unceded connection of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples to the lands and waters across Australia. We are committed to bringing the greatest good for the greatest number of people and Country, leaving no one behind.
