This year, @nscanu.bsky.social has been conducting a series of community consultations around Australia. To complement that, we welcome public submissions.

We want to hear from everyday Aussies about national security. You don’t need to be an expert – we just want to know what matters to you.

When making a submission, we're encouraging people to think about these themes:

* What matters most to you when you think about Australia's security (e.g. safety, resilience, rights, stability, environment, alliances).

* The biggest challenges or risks you think Australia faces in the future.

* What values/interests we should protect as part of national security (e.g. democracy, fair go, diversity, freedom).

* Any ideas or priorities you think government should focus on.

Your submission doesn’t need to be comprehensive, just focus on what matters to you.
