Ecological Society of Australia

The Ecological Society of Australia (ESA) is a group of ecologists in Australia, with over 1100 members from all Australian states and territories. The ESA has a 60-year history supporting ecologists, promoting ecology and ecological research.

ESA publishes two journals: Austral Ecology^{[citation needed]} and Ecological Management and Restoration. The society hosts the largest annual ecological conference in Australia.

Censorship issue

An article published by Nature in September 2020 detailed results of a survey of ecology-related scientists that indicated many were experiencing increased pressure to suppress information about their scientific research,^[1] in Australia and around the world. ESA offered suggestions for solutions through institutional changes and established a permanent online portal for anonymous reporting of suppression of information derived through environmental research.^{[citation needed]}
