We provide advice to the Minister for Communications on a broad range of online safety issues including cyberbullying, image-based abuse, and policy and reporting oversight of the online safety regulator (the eSafety Commissioner).

We are interested in both emerging harms and emerging solutions, and our advice balances harms and freedoms.
