Recovery Action Plans

Recovery action plans are developed for priority species in consultation with our partners. They guide recovery actions and address knowledge gaps in recovery efforts. Recovery action plans are one of the State’s planning mechanisms for identifying and supporting the recovery vision for a threatened species and outlining the actions needed to conserve them. Species recovery is a dynamic and long-term process and the adaptive management approach that underpins recovery action plans ensures that decision making is evidence-based and flexible, and the most effective management interventions are used in the recovery effort over the long-term. Through considered and inclusive participatory planning, we can proactively move towards conserving threatened species and minimise further risk of decline for the State’s unique and valuable flora and fauna.
