Modernising Australia's border security
Shownotes
Why do Australia’s borders require a fundamental rethink? How can Australian governments build on the vision of Australia’s borders as a national strategic asset?
How can new forms of border governance, such as the use of AI and advanced data analytics, be introduced without undermining public trust?
What should the border look like for industry, travellers, the pubic, international partners and those interested in conducting trade with Australia?
In this episode, Mike Outram joins Sally Bulkeley to discuss the need for Australia to reconceptualise its borders as strategic assets, the threats posed by transnational crime, and the economic benefits of modern border management.
Sally Bulkeley is Deputy Head of the ANU National Security College (NSC).
Mike Outram APM is a Distinguished Advisor at NSC. He was Commissioner of the Australian Border Force from 2018 to 2024. He has served as a law enforcement officer for over 30 years.
