Vision and Strategic Focus

Safeguarding Australia's Flora

Our Vision

Our vision is for a future where Australia’s native plant diversity is valued, understood and conserved for the benefit of all.

Our Strategic Focus

Our strategic focus is to deliver a national effort that contributes to the conservation of Australia’s native plant diversity through collaborative and sustainable seed and germplasm collecting, banking and use, research, and knowledge sharing.

The Partnership will deliver this through four key outcome areas:

Outcome 1 – Growing our collections, research and restoration contributions
Outcome 2 – Growing our investments in our facilities and people.
Outcome 3 – Improving engagement and partnerships with Australia’s First Nations Peoples
Outcome 4 – Developing and sharing knowledge

Australian flora needs your help

The Australian Seed Bank Partnership underpins a national effort to conserve Australia’s native plant diversity through collaborative and sustainable seed collecting, banking, research and knowledge sharing. Our vision is a future where Australia’s native plant diversity is valued, understood and conserved for the benefit of all.

Resources available to support flora conservation activities are limited. At the same time we are experiencing greater demands on seedbanks and related expertise in response to the bushfire crisis. We are also working to support other ecological restoration challenges while building awareness, knowledge and capability in our community.

Your support can make a direct contribution to this important work.

The Australian Seed Bank Partnership acknowledges the Traditional Owners and Custodians of the lands on which we work and live across Australia. We pay our respects to Elders past, present, and emerging, and recognise the deep knowledge held by Australia’s First Nations Peoples, developed over thousands of years of connection to Country.
