Parks Australia
Parks Australia supports the Director of National Parks, the federal park agency, in conserving Australia's biodiversity and cultural heritage. We manage the Commonwealth's terrestrial protected areas, including six national parks (three jointly managed with their traditional owners) and three botanic gardens.The national parks range from tiny Pulu-Keeling, a pristine atoll far out in the Indian Ocean, to the iconic World-Heritage-listed Kakadu and Uluru-Kata Tjuta and the award winning Booderee National Park.
Parks Australia also helps build the National Reserve System, Australia's great environmental partnership, and supports Indigenous landholders declare Indigenous Protected Areas in some of the most remote and fragile parts of the country.
