Councils Caring for the Coastal Environment



The Sydney Coastal Councils Group Inc. (SCCG) was established in 1989 to promote collaboration between Member Councils on environmental issues relating to the sustainable management of the urban coastal and estuarine environment.
The Group brings together eight councils, representing nearly 1.3 million people, to address key coastal challenges including climate adaptation, infrastructure, biodiversity, planning, and water management.
Through coordination, collaboration and knowledge sharing, SCCG supports Member Councils and builds capacity in the management of Sydney’s urban coastal and estuarine environments.
The SCCG stands on Country that always was and always will be Aboriginal land. The SCCG acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the land and waters, and we show our respect for Elders past, present and future. We are committed to providing places in which Aboriginal people are included socially, culturally and economically through thoughtful and collaborative approaches to our work.
