About the document
The National Reserve System - Australia'’s network of parks, reserves and protected areas - is a vital part of our national effort to conserve biodiversity.
It protects examples of Australia's distinctive landscapes, plants and animals for future generations, and is often referred to as nature's safety net in the face of climate change.
The Australian Government is investing $180 million over five years to accelerate development of the National Reserve System. This is one of the six national priorities of the Government's $2.25 billion initiative Caring for our Country.
