The Group Bravery Citation is a decoration created in 1990 that is awarded to Australians for a collective act of bravery by a group of people in extraordinary circumstances that are considered worthy of recognition. It is awarded by the governor-general of Australia, with the approval of the sovereign, on the recommendation of the Australian Bravery Decorations Council. The decorations recognise acts of bravery by members of the community who selflessly put themselves in jeopardy to protect the lives or property of others.

It is ranked 5th in the list of Australian bravery decoration in the Australian honours system.
