BAT welcomes new UK Overseas Territories Biodiversity Strategy

The Government of the British Antarctic Territory welcomes the launch of the new UK Overseas Territories Biodiversity Strategy, developed jointly by the UK and Overseas Territories to protect some of the world’s most precious wildlife and ecosystems.

Home to more than 90% of the UK’s unique species – many found nowhere else on Earth – the strategy represents the most collaborative approach to biodiversity conservation across the UK Overseas Territories to date. BAT is proud to be part of this historic collaboration that will guide conservation efforts for years to come.
