Saving Native Species

This funding opportunity is seeking to deliver improved trajectories for the 110 identified priority threatened species from the Threatened Species Action Plan (2022-2032).

The Saving Native Species (Priority Species) grant opportunity will help deliver the objectives of the Action Plan; that the risk of extinction is reduced for all priority species. Recovery actions for many of the 110 priority species will also benefit other threatened species that share their habitat.

The objectives of the program are to:

• conserve, protect and sustainably manage Australia’s biodiversity, ecosystems and environment
• deliver the objectives and targets in the Action Plan.

The intended outcomes of the program are to:

• reduce the risk of extinction for all priority species
• improve the condition for all priority places
• prevent new extinctions of plants and animals
• protect and conserve at least 30 per cent of Australia’s land mass.
