OUR VISION AND MISSION

Our over-riding objective is to halt the decline in Australia's native animals, plants and forests.

We aim to do so by raising awareness of the need to protect our land, air and water which is so vital to our animals and plants. Just as importantly, we are raising the consequences of not doing so.

We see the keys to achieving our objectives as

• the application of science-based conservation;
• persuading Governments to increase the funds and resources they allocate to conservation;
  
• significantly increasing funding for private conservation; and
  
• operating only through the best-performing conservation organisations, while helping strengthen their effectiveness.
  

Vision

In the face of seemingly crushing environmental threats, The Thomas Foundation's Vision is simple and clear. It is to:

"Stop further decline in Australia's native flora and fauna (our biodiversity)"

Mission

To avert impending environmental disaster, our Mission is also to-the-point. It is to:

"Support science-based conservation that contributes to the preservation of Australia's remaining species, and to generate new funds for this purpose"
