CSIRO needs urgent support

The Albanese Government

The CSIRO is under attack, with widespread job cuts across the organisation and critical research being halted.

Urgent funding is needed to stop these cuts and secure the vital work of our national science agency.

The CSIRO has embarked on deep and devastating job cuts to our national science agency.

With more than 800 jobs already gone, and another 300+ job cuts announced, these cuts now surpass those delivered by the Abbott Government.

Labor rightly spoke out against CSIRO job cuts when Abbott was in power.
Now they’re in government, they need to commit to urgent funding that stops the cuts and secures public science and research.

CSIRO undertakes incredibly important work that benefits Australian families, communities, and the world. Our scientists are protecting crops from disease, building national resilience in the face of a changing climate, strengthening our defences against biosecurity risks, and driving innovation in health and technology.

We are calling on the Albanese Government to act now to secure the future of CSIRO’s world-leading science and research.
