To date, 360 sites have been declared as Assets of Intergenerational Significance across 151 national parks, protecting the key habitat for:

Androcalva rosea is an endangered shrub known from the Hunter Valley of New South Wales
An Asset of Intergenerational Significance can be any area of exceptional value – environmental or cultural – that warrants special protection, including dedicated management measures.
For each Asset of Intergenerational Significance, the National Parks and Wildlife Service has a statutory obligation to prepare and implement a concise conservation action plan which sets out:
- key risks to the declared area of habitat for the threatened species
- priority actions to reduce risks to this important habitat – such as dedicated feral animal control or fire management, or the establishment of insurance populations
- actions to measure and report on the health and population of the threatened species (metrics).
