Animalplan Steering Committee

The Animalplan Steering Committee oversees implementation of Animalplan activities. Members represent government, industry and non-government organisations. The committee meets quarterly and works with government, non-government and industry stakeholders. It supports projects and activities that strengthen our national animal health system.

The committee’s role is to:

  • prioritise industry and government animal health initiatives
  • help refine and endorse project proposals
  • support project leads to identify funding opportunities and ensure projects align with industry and government strategic priorities
  • monitor and report on project progress and make recommendations.

Animalplan Secretariat

The Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry provide the Animalplan Secretariat, whose role includes collating and publishing updates on the projects aligned under Animalplan. Search the list of projects.

Submit a project to Animalplan

Contact the Secretariat to help identify who best to work with to refine your project idea. You can then submit your refined project to the Animalplan Steering Committee for consideration.

Please note that Animalplan 2022 to 2027 is not a direct funding body but does provide an agreed framework to promote alignment of project objectives and national coordination.

Animalplan Communiqué

The Animalplan Communiqué provides updates on the activities and projects aligned under Animalplan. It is developed after each quarterly Steering Committee meeting.
