Australian Civil-Military Centre

"ACMC is committed not only to joining up civil-military-police capabilities in Australia, but to building this vital capability across our regional partners." "Australia and New Zealand share responsibility for regional assistance operations such as disaster response. It is essential that we work together to ensure we are 'joined-up' ahead of a crisis", Dr Ryan added. The ACMC engages with, and supports, government departments and agencies, non-government organisations and international partners, including the United Nations, on civil-military-police issues. The ACMC is staffed by officials of relevant Australian Government departments and agencies, including the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, Australian Federal Police, Australian Defence Force, Attorney General's Department and the Australian Council for International Development. It is administered through the Vice Chief of Defence Force Group.
