Dedicated to the Conservation and Preservation of Australia’s Wildlife

About the Project

The Wildlife Research & Education Campus would enable the Currumbin Wildlife Hospital to continue and expand its current research and training programs to not only save many native wildlife species from extinction but also generate a unique Queensland experience for visitors.

The research and training conducted at the Campus will undoubtedly have a profound impact on the preservation of native wildlife species, including the critically endangered Koala.

The proposed project is poised to be a significant asset for Australia, in the realm of conservation. Watch our video to find out more.

Business Case

The Currumbin Wildlife Hospital Research and Education Campus would provide numerous economic benefits. Many of the planned training programs would create new educational tourism products that would attract visitors to the region, including international students.

In total, the new Research and Education Campus will annually support 41 new jobs across the local economy and contribute $6.7 million to the local economy, in Gross Regional Product (GRP) terms.

Design & Construction

The Currumbin Wildlife Hospital Research and Education Campus will contribute to the decarbonisation agenda of the Commonwealth Government. The design of the new facilities has incorporated numerous elements to reduce the carbon footprint of the facility and provide positive environmental benefits, including rooftop solar, rainwater harvesting, energy-efficient lighting and energy-efficient design.
