Posted 01 July 2024

The Corporate Plan sets out Private Forests Tasmania's strategic direction, including our purpose, our goals and priorities for the next three years. Private Forest Tasmania's purpose is to facilitate and expand the sustainable development of Tasmania’s private forest resource.

Private Forests Tasmania new Corporate Plan has been released. PFT develops its strategies and priorities in consultation with its key stakeholders, including all levels of government and the agricultural and forest industries sectors in Tasmania. Through these consultations PFT develops a three-years rolling corporate plan highlighting goals and the priority projects they will be delivered through.

The goals are:

Work creatively and collaboratively with partners and stakeholders to improve private native and plantation forestry commercial wood supply and carbon outcomes.
Effectively communicate the benefits of private native and plantation forestry as an integral part of Tasmania’s agricultural growth strategies.
Work with government policy makers and regulators at local, state and national levels to improve regulatory efficiency and practical policy settings for private native and plantation forestry.
Build organisational capacity by developing our people, knowledge, safety, systems, culture and funding sources.

PFT holds a strategic planning workshop with stakeholders every three years to assist with the development of goals and priorities. This process is due to occur again this financial year.

The Corporate Plan for 2024-27 was recently approved by the Minister for Resources, Eric Abetz.
