The State of the Wet Tropics Report

Each year the Authority publishes a joint Annual Report and State of the Wet Tropics Report. The reports are then tabled in the Australian and Queensland Parliaments as required by law.

The State of the Wet Tropics Report discusses the health of the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area. It highlights threats to the integrity of the Area and what is being done to improve the health of the Area's ecosystems. In later years the Authority has also reported on the benefits of the World Heritage Area in the life of the community. Past Annual Reports and State of the Wet Tropics Reports can be downloaded below.

The Periodic Report

Every six years the Authority must produce a Periodic Report for the World Heritage Committee of UNESCO. A Periodic Report is required of all World Heritgae Areas to update knowledge about their original nominations and how they are being managed and monitored. Past periodic reports can be downloaded below.
