How Australia can partner with countries in our region to promote democracy and the international rules-based order, with particular reference to:
- Australia's interest in supporting the sovereignty and independence of our immediate neighbours;
- the importance of stability, democracy and good governance for the wellbeing of all the people of our region;
- how Australia can partner with our neighbours in promoting our shared democratic values and protecting democratic institutions;
- the role of civil society organisations in supporting democracy in our region;
- ways in which Australia can assist our neighbours in these objectives; and
- any related matters.
