Photos from the launch event of the Australian Government's new international development policy setting the long-term direction for Australia's development program at Australian Parliament House on August 8, 2023. Profound challenges continue to reshape our world, testing our collective resolve. The new policy is centred on listening, respect and genuine partnership. It will guide how Australia's development program supports a peaceful, stable, and prosperous future for Australia and our region – ensuring it is fit for these complex times. Among its key commitments, the policy identifies ambitious targets and action on climate change through boosts in investments and access to specific climate expertise. It heralds the development of new strategies that will reaffirm and strengthen the centrality of gender equality, disability and LGBTQIA+ rights to Australia's foreign policy. It also includes a new strategy to guide Australia's humanitarian engagement internationally, ensuring we have an adaptable, responsive framework that responds to humanitarian need and builds resilience. These strategies will guide Australia's broader foreign policy including international development assistance, humanitarian action, trade and security efforts.
