The outcomes of this project will have immense benefit to Australia. They impact upon two areas of national importance, namely ensuring an environmentally sustainable Australia, and safeguarding Australia. In particular, the project will provide models, methodology and optimal strategies for sustainable use of Australia's biodiversity, for protecting Australia from invasive diseases and pests, and for protecting Australia from terrorism and crime. Special focus will be given to the control of invasive species, the control of emerging infections, and the optimal allocation of resources. The current risks posed by invasive diseases and pests, and the alarming rate of destruction of biodiversity, warrant urgent funding of this project.

该项目的成果将为澳大利亚带来巨大利益。它们影响到两个具有国家重要性的领域，即确保澳大利亚的环境可持续发展和保护澳大利亚。特别是，该项目将提供可持续利用澳大利亚生物多样性的模式、方法和最佳战略，以保护澳大利亚免受入侵性疾病和害虫的侵害，并保护澳大利亚免受恐怖主义和犯罪的侵害。将特别关注入侵物种的控制，新出现的感染的控制和资源的优化配置。目前入侵性疾病和虫害造成的风险以及生物多样性破坏的惊人速度，都需要紧急为该项目提供资金。
