extent, condition and connectivity of habitat of the Painted Honeyeater.

   This will be achieved by implementing the actions set out in this Recovery Plan that minimise threats while protecting and enhancing the species' habitat throughout its range, adequately monitoring the species, generating new knowledge to guide recovery and increasing public awareness.
   Strategies to achieve objective
      Protect, manage and restore Painted Honeyeater breeding and foraging habitats at the local, regional and landscape scales.
      Monitor, reduce and manage threats and sources of mortality.
      Develop and apply techniques to measure changes in population trajectory in order to measure the success of recovery actions.
      Improve understanding of habitat use at a landscape scale in order to better target protection and restoration measures.
      Engage local communities and stakeholders in Painted Honeyeater conservation. Coordinate, review and report on recovery progress.
   Criteria for success:
    This recovery plan will be deemed successful if, by 2031, all of the following have
    been achieved:
     The Painted Honeyeater population has increased from 2020 baseline counts, as a result of recovery actions.
     Threats within the range of Painted Honeyeater are managed to avoid and mitigate impacts on their habitats.
     There has been an improvement in the quality and extent of Painted Honeyeater habitat throughout the species' range.
     Understanding of the species' ecology has increased, in particular knowledge of movement patterns, habitat use and post-breeding dispersal.
     There is increased participation by key stakeholders and the public in recovery efforts and monitoring.
   Recovery team:
   Recovery teams provide advice and assist in coordinating actions described in recovery plans. They include representatives from organisations with a direct interest in the recovery of the species, including those involved in funding and those participating
   in actions that support the recovery of the species. The national Painted Honeyeater Recovery Team has the responsibility of providing advice, coordinating and directing the implementation of the recovery actions outlined in this recovery plan. The membership      of the national Recovery Team includes individuals from relevant government agencies, non-government organisations, industry groups and expertise from independent researchers and community groups.

             This document constitutes the 'National Recovery Plan for the Painted Honeyeater (Grantiella picta)'. The plan considers the conservation requirements of the species across its range and identifies the actions to be taken to ensure the species' long-term viability in nature, and the responsible agencies that will undertake those actions.
             This recovery plan is the first national plan to be developed for the Painted Honeyeater.

              The Painted Honeyeater was listed as Vulnerable under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (Cwlth) (EPBC Act) on 8 July 2015. At the time of listing it was thought that there were fewer than 10,000 mature individuals remaining in the population and the total population had undergone a
