The Blueprint for Critical Technologies outlines a vision for protecting and promoting critical technologies in Australia’s national interest. The blueprint is underpinned by four goals and seven action pillars, with a focus on promoting and protecting critical technologies through a national interest lens that balances the economic opportunities of critical technologies with their national security risks.

This action plan demonstrates the Australian government’s tangible actions to protect and promote critical technologies and categorises these actions under the blueprint’s response framework. In essence, the action plan operationalises the blueprint.
