OUR IMPACT



Sustainability is about making a positive difference for our customers, community, and country – for the long-term.  


We know we are going to be around for a long time and that’s why we take sustainability seriously - it’s all about looking after people and the environment so we hand down a healthy planet to our children.  

And because we’re owned by you, we work hard to have a sustainable business so we can invest back into the network right across Australia.  


nbn®’s Value Creation Model is a visual representation of the impact we make for our people, customers, communities, partners, country and planet from operating the network and connecting communities to running a sustainable business.

Visit the interactive Value Creation Model to see how we are delivering on our purpose of lifting the digital capability of Australia.

  • Network
