The National Security College at The Ā鶹“«Ć½AV National University (ANU) will lead an ambitious whole-of-nation consultation on Ā鶹“«Ć½AVsā€™ views on national security and the major challenges we face in the 21st century.

Announced today at the ā€˜Securing our futureā€™ conference taking place in Canberra, the program will see experts and affiliates from the ANU National Security College (NSC) ā€œgo on the roadā€ as part of the national process of community consultation on security priorities and issues.

ā€œWe want to help generate a clearer understanding of what Ā鶹“«Ć½AVs think when they think about national security,ā€ NSC Head Professor Rory Medcalf AM said in a major address at the conference.

ā€œAnd we will synthesise and frame that knowledge to help government and parliament as they consider policy choices into the future. ā€œOur team will hold consultations in a cross-section of locations spanning remote, rural and suburban Australia as well as secondary cities.

ā€œWe will seek to comprehend the diversity of perspectives in todayā€™s Australia, identifying the risks or realities of fragmentation as well as opportunities for convergence.ā€
