Our focus

The Academy connects Australia’s science to global efforts, strengthening our homegrown research and international leadership. We position science as a tool of diplomacy and a means to navigate a complex geopolitical environment.

International engagement and partnerships are critical for addressing complex, cross-border challenges spanning climate, health, and space. The Academy is proud to represent Australian science on the world stage, through global forums such as the International Science Council and the InterAcademy Partnership. We shape global research directions and policy, elevate Australia’s influence and impact, and participate in partnerships that enhance the nation’s reputation as a responsible global citizen.
