A revised National Environment and Community Biosecurity Research, Development & Extension Strategy (2021-2026) is now available for consultation. The strategy is a revision of the existing strategy that ran from 2016-2020 and has been developed together with government and non-government stakeholders across the country. It highlights the impact that biosecurity risks pose to our natural environment and way of life and will focus on maximising collaboration in the environment and community sector to get the most out of RD&E into the future.
The strategy will help us:
- set and revise research priorities
- identify actions that improve knowledge sharing between different sectors and industries
- improve communication between policy, researchers and end users
- reduce the effect of biosecurity risks by using research outcomes.
You can shape the final strategy by providing feedback.
The new strategy builds on the first strategy that ran from 2016-2020. This new strategy will help us develop a strategic approach to environmental and community biosecurity research, development and Extension (RD&E). It aims to enhance the value of existing and future investments in RD&E through:
- improved collaboration
- effective allocation of resources
- strong leadership.
