Department of the Environment, Tourism, Science and Innovation

The Department of the Environment, Tourism, Science and Innovation (DETSI) recognises the enormous value a clean environment, innovation driven economy and visitor experience economy, and vibrant culture contributes to our lives.

As a diverse organisation, the department brings together key areas of work to achieve our objectives for a better Queensland. The department plays a pivotal role in advancing Queensland's agrifood sector through science-driven sustainability, innovation, and environmental stewardship.

By being effective leaders and partners in managing, protecting and restoring Queensland’s natural environment and heritage, we help ensure the health and prosperity of current and future generations.

A summary of the department’s objectives and key strategies to achieve these outcomes is outlined in the department’s strategic plan.
