If you presently live in Australia, you should go through the Australian Attorney General's office. In Australia, intercountry adoption matters are the responsibility of the State and Territories. This link has information on intercountry adoption:

FYI: You have to be an Australian citizen residing in Australia to adopt a child from Australia (http://travel.state.gov/family/adoption/country/country_405.html)
