The plan, entitled Towards Zero Extinctions, means our region will be prioritised for support to its threatened species and fragile ecological areas through relevant Australian Government policies and programs.

State and territory governments, First Nations peoples, land managers and community groups will be encouraged to partner with us in working towards the goals for our region.

This is a significant step forward to ensure that the values of the Greater Blue Mountains World Heritage Area are protected and enhanced.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
