The 2020 Australian Greens leadership election was held on 4 February 2020 to elect the leader of the Australian Greens. The election took place after Richard Di Natale announced his resignation as leader and his intention to resign from parliament.
Adam Bandt, the member for Melbourne, was elected to the leadership unopposed, becoming the first Greens leader to sit in the House of Representatives and not the Senate.
In the deputy leadership contest, Larissa Waters was returned unopposed as the party's leader in the Senate. The second deputy leadership position was contested by Mehreen Faruqi, Sarah Hanson-Young and Nick McKim, with McKim emerging successful.
The leadership of the Greens is decided by consensus within the party room (or a party room vote if consensus cannot be reached).
