Project Phoenix Resources for the Australian Native Seed and Plant Sector

Learn more!

Project Phoenix has provided an opportunity to produce evidence-based reports and resources that are a point-in-time snapshot of the national native seed sector funded by the government’s Wildlife and Habitat Bushfire Recovery Program.

Project Phoenix has enabled the native seed sector to become visible in its innovative and accessible approach for the publication of the reports. For those who know the sector or for those who are interested in understanding more, you will find information on a wide range of topics. The reports have informed the development of the first ever Strategy for the Australian Native Seed Sector and provide evidence to enable better decision making for a sustainable native seed sector now and for the future.
