Guardian Weekly Australia epaper is a weekly newspaper published by the Guardian Media Group and is one of the world’s oldest international newspapers. It was founded with the aim of spreading progressive British ideas into America after the First World War. Its first edition was printed a week after the signing of the Treaty of Versailles in 1919, and included the following as a statement of mission: “We aim at presenting what is best and most interesting in the Guardian, what is most distinctive and independent of time, in a compact weekly form”.

The Guardian Weekly draws on the editorial resources of The Guardian and also contains articles from The Observer and the The Washington Post and articles translated from France’s Le Monde newspaper.
