Advice and advocacy
Providing independent, evidence-based advice using the latest scientific knowledge to inform policy that shapes Australia.
We provide independent, evidence-based advice wherever it is needed and we work with decision-makers to enable choices, legislation, systems and policy to be shaped by the latest scientific knowledge. We convene unparalleled expertise to produce rapid-response evidence briefs during emergencies, prepare long-term strategic analyses, and lead national conversations about scientific issues. From informing pandemic responses, to the future of the iconic Great Barrier Reef, and advocating for a science-aware justice system, the Academy鈥檚 expert advice generates impact.
