The Tasmanian Greens are a political party in Australia which developed from numerous environmental campaigns in Tasmania, including the flooding of Lake Pedder and the Franklin Dam campaign. They form a part of the Australian Greens.
Following the 2024 Tasmanian State Election, the party holds five seats in the Tasmanian House of Assembly, and is currently led by Dr Rosalie Woodruff.[2] At a federal level, two Tasmanian senators – Nick McKim and Peter Whish-Wilson – are members of the Greens.
The party's current shadow ministry can be found at Woodruff Shadow Ministry.
