The Great Barrier Reef Intergovernmental Agreement, provides a framework for the Australian and Queensland governments to work together to protect the Great Barrier Reef.

It recognises that pressures on the Reef can't be solved alone. Together we co-fund and deliver many major programs. This provides a coordinated approach to protect the Reef.

The agreement reflects the shared vision for the future of the Great Barrier Reef.

The agreement, signed by the Prime Minister and Queensland Premier, came into effect on 30 September 2024.
