Protecting biodiversity is up to all of us.
We’re working with experts, communities, Traditional Owners, farmers, government and industries to solve Australia’s biodiversity crisis. And that includes you.
Why Australia needs a Biodiversity Council
Listen to Professors Brendan Wintle, Sarah Bekessy and John Thwaites talk about Australia's biodiversity challenge and why they are excited to be part of the Biodiversity Council.
Australia’s biodiversity is recognised and valued nationally and globally as a priceless heritage, a foundation for our life and a defining feature of our country, and its future is recovered or secured
