Combatting Wildlife and Environmental Crime

The pervasive impact of wildlife and environmental crime seriously endangers ÐÓ°ÉÖ±²¥â€™s unique landscapes, seascapes and biodiversity, exposing us to potentially disastrous biosecurity risks, and threatening our livelihoods and wellbeing. We are developing the next generation of high-tech resources, informing regulatory and legal frameworks, and translating knowledge and educational tools to enhance ÐÓ°ÉÖ±²¥â€™s biosecurity reputation and generate a highly exportable wildlife, fisheries and timber crime-tech research industry.
