The Australian Committee for IUCN Inc. (ACIUCN) was founded in 1979 to provide a focus for Australian member organisations of IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature) and organisations with primary interests or responsibilities in nature conservation to support IUCN’s global mission for ‘a just world which values nature’ within Australia.
The Australian Committee brings together expertise from across Australia's governments, non-government organisations and academics in a unique network to advise on best practice environmental policy in Australia and beyond.
On March 13 the ACIUCN met in Brisbane for a workshop on the Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework. Below is a document synthesising views and key points raised during the meeting.
Director Tandi Spencer-Smith thanks all those who assisted with the development of the document, and all those who took part and helped to start the important conversation on Australia’s priorities for biodiversity conservation post-2020.
We acknowledge and value the rights and interests of Indigenous Peoples in the protection and management of environmental values through their involvement in decisions and processes, and the application of traditional Indigenous knowledge.
