Dr Judy West Executive Director ANBG ‘The new ANBG Management Plan'

In 2009 Dr Judy West was appointed Executive Director of the ANBG and head of Parks and Biodiversity Science within the then Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts. Judy has also been Director of the Australian National Herbarium since 1989 and has held a number of other scientific appointments during her career.

Every ten years the ANBG must develop a detailed plan to guide its management and development for the next decade; the latest such Plan is expected to be finalised by mid-2012. Judy will discuss the new Plan’s vision for the future of the Gardens.
