However, with the rise of strategic competition the openness and resultant internationalisation of Australian higher education has increasingly been seen as major risk to Australia\u2019s national security. This paper provides an overview of the types of security risks that have been the focus of public discussion, and provides a critical analysis of responses by government agencies and universities. Conscious of the significant benefits of international engagement and mobility, Australian institutions have endeavoured to maintain a public-facing openness with heightened surveillance and targeted action behind the scenes. The paper will consider the ways in which responses to security concerns have changed over time in response to the rise and fall of bilateral tensions, and in response to domestic political contestation.<\/p>\n<p>\u25a0Note<br \/>\u30fbParticipation fee is free.<br \/>\u30fbRegistration is open noon on Friday, 23 January 2026 (JST).<br \/>\u30fbInternet access and a camera\/microphone device required to participate online.<br \/>\u30fbUse your full name as your personal meeting ID when you enter the meeting room.
