Australia

Australia is a high-income, developed country with a diversified economy and substantial public and private investment in infrastructure, research and services. The government continues to expand major public infrastructure pipelines for transport, housing and energy systems to support productivity and resilience, and its national infrastructure advisory body provides independent guidance to improve efficiency and outcomes. Australia also plays a significant role in international development: through its official development assistance (ODA) program it aims to strengthen economic resilience, climate action and social inclusion across the Indo-Pacific, with record ODA budgets and targeted regional partnerships.
