Biodiversity assessment and monitoring
Biodiversity in Australia is in decline. Impacts from threats such as pollution, habitat destruction and climate change can lead to population decline and extinction. Conserving biodiversity is recognised as being an essential part of safeguarding earth's biological life support systems. Australia’s Biodiversity Conservation Strategy 2010-2030 is a framework for conserving the nation’s biodiversity over the next two decades. This strategy guides all Australian biodiversity strategies and policies including federal, state and territory governments, as well as, the private sector.
Carijoa supports this strategy in a number of ways;
-
Our collaborative approach to research and monitoring with state government agencies, universities and citizen science programs, and the dissemination of our research in public forums and social media outreach, actively mainstreams biodiversity. Increasing public awareness and participation positively changes the way Australians think about biodiversity.
