Queensland Invasive Plants and Animals Strategy 2025–2030

Abstract

The Queensland Invasive Plants and Animals Strategy 2025–2030 (this strategy) recognises that managing the risks and impacts of invasive plants and animals is occurring in the context of several potentially exacerbating factors. These include, but are not limited to, climate change, land use change, land degradation, biodiversity loss, global trade, and increasing movement of people through travel and migration. The management of invasive plants and animals is the shared responsibility of landowners, land managers, industry, the community, and all levels of government. Shared responsibility has been made a legal requirement through the general biosecurity obligation under the Biosecurity Act 2014.
