The Threatened Species Strategy Action Plan 2021–2026 outlines the Australian Government's targeted efforts to improve the trajectory of 100 priority threatened species and the condition of 20 priority places by 2031. The plan establishes objectives, measurable targets, and actionable steps to address threats such as invasive species, habitat loss, and climate change. It focuses on eight strategic areas, including mitigating threats, conserving habitats, emergency preparedness, and building resilience to climate change. The plan emphasizes collaboration across governments, Indigenous groups, scientific communities, and the public, integrating Indigenous ecological knowledge and promoting community leadership. It includes funding mechanisms and monitoring systems to ensure accountability and progress. The document also highlights Australia's commitment to national and international biodiversity responsibilities under frameworks like the EPBC Act and the Convention on Biological Diversity.
