Canada, Australia and India have agreed to form a new trilateral partnership aimed at strengthening cooperation on critical minerals, emerging technologies and supply-chain resilience, signing the accord on the sidelines of the G20 Leaders’ Summit, which concluded in Johannesburg, South Africa, on Sunday.

The new Australia-Canada-India Technology and Innovation (ACITI) partnership will focus on green-energy innovation, strategic minerals development and the advancement of AI, drawing on the three countries’ shared strengths.

The pact is designed to complement existing bilateral initiatives while inserting a new layer of coordination at a time when governments are racing to secure inputs required for the global energy transition. All three countries see critical minerals as a strategic lever, both to attract supply-chain investment and to strengthen geopolitical resilience in the face of concentrated upstream supply.

In a joint statement, the governments said the ACITI partnership would "strengthen ambition in cooperation on critical and emerging technologies . . . with an emphasis on green energy innovation and building resilient supply chains, including in critical minerals."

Officials from the three nations are expected to meet in the first quarter of 2026 to take the initiative forward.
