In Australian politics, a Labor–Greens coalition or a red–green coalition is a coalition agreement between two parties: the centre-left, socially democratic Australian Labor Party and the left-wing, progressive Australian Greens. These agreements have occurred at both the state and territory level and in some local councils.
The term usually refers to:
- Labor–Greens coalition, a coalition that currently forms government in the Australian Capital Territory (2012–present)
- Labor–Green Accord, a similar coalition arrangement that formerly existed in Tasmania (1989–1990)
