This website helps you understand what foreign interference is, how it may affect you or your community, and simple steps you can take to stay informed and safe.

Foreign interference occurs when governments of other countries try to harm Australia to advance their own interests. It can involve secretly interfering in Australia’s decision-making or threatening people in Australia.

Foreign interference is happening in Australia, and it can impact all of us.

Foreign governments may attempt to undermine, monitor, intimidate and threaten people and community groups.

This is not okay. Everyone in Australia has a right to feel safe.

The Australian Government is here to support you.

This website is for individuals and community members who are concerned about, have witnessed, or are experiencing foreign interference.
