What are the origins of the Australian Geospatial-Intelligence Organisation (AGO), and how has the organisation developed within the National Intelligence Community (NIC)? 

How does AGO contribute to the broader remit of Australian statecraft, the work done by other NIC agencies, and the Five Eyes partnership?

What makes innovation in the geospatial intelligence space key to building resilience? 

To commemorate AGO’s 25th anniversary, Director AGO Kathryn McMullan joined Sally Bulkeley from the National Security College in a podcast discussing AGO’s history and its role in the broader national security ecosystem.
