Partner with us to tackle Australia’s greatest challenges

We're focusing on the issues that matter the most: for our quality of life, for the economy and for our environment.

Sustainability at CSIRO

Sustainability is at the core of CSIRO’s purpose. The science and research we undertake delivers national benefit, providing solutions that enhance our quality of life, stimulate our economy, and preserve our unique environment.

Future science platforms

Turning challenges into opportunities

Future Science Platforms are critical to turn Australia’s future challenges into opportunities to invent a better future for us all. This investment in science will underpin innovation and help reinvent and create new industries for Australia. FSPs will see us grow the capability of a new generation of researchers and allow Australia to attract the best students and experts to work with us on future science.

Indigenous engagement

From careers to science to education 

Further together

CSIRO acknowledges the extraordinary contributions Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people have made, and continue to make, to our culture, the economy, and science. We are working with Indigenous communities and organisations to create Indigenous-driven science solutions that support sustainable futures for Indigenous peoples, cultures and Country.
