Pacific partnership

In February 2021, eSafety and the Fiji Online Safety Commission announced the world's first online safety regulator partnership. This strengthens the Vuvale Partnership which supports cooperation, consultation and friendship between our two nations.

To mark the occasion, a virtual meeting was held between Australia's eSafety Commissioner Julie Inman Grant and Fiji's Online Safety Commissioner Anne Dunn-Baleilevuka. You can watch the video and read more about our shared commitment to helping create safer online environments in our region and across the world. 

Advancing online safety is a global effort. Strategic partnerships and collaborations have the power to influence action, provide change, and shape the online world we all want. 

eSafety is involved in a number of global alliances and initiatives and regularly contributes to global debates, discussions and projects. Through these, we seek to create safer and more responsible digital environments.

Australia and Korea are both committed to reducing online harms, and helping create a safer, more positive internet for everyone.
