PROTECTING AUSTRALIA

Australia faces complex security challenges, including terrorism, WMD proliferation, and regional tensions. With a defense workforce of 50,000 regular service members, 35,000 reservists, and 16,000 civilians, national security is a priority, taking up 1.9% of GDP. The government advocates a whole-of-nation approach, emphasizing international engagement, national coordination, and domestic security collaboration. As transnational crime and geopolitical tensions persist, Australia's future security strategy will rely on comprehensive efforts involving government, business, and community to mitigate these ongoing threats.
