We invite Fulbright Alumni to join other guests at a highly topical public forum organized and hosted by The United States Study Centre, University of Sydney: The future of the Australia-US alliance: Report launch and panel discussion. For those interested, after the public forum we will go to a nearby bar for drinks, pub food, and a chat.  Look out for AFAA National Committee members Nyrie Palmer and Daniel McNamara who will be at the event and rounding up interested folks after for drinks and food. 

Please RSVP to attend the public forum on the eventbrite page (cost of ticket is $10) but indicate Fulbright Alumni as your company so that we can track Fulbright attendees.

Event details:

With the Australian federal election complete, the US 2020 presidential race well underway and a rapid increase of US-China tensions, it is time to reassess the future of Australia's relationship with the United States.

A former advisor to US Secretary of State John Kerry and a former advisor to Australian Foreign Minister Julie Bishop have joined forces to look at why there are divergences between the two allies when it comes to countering China, and how to narrow those differences. 

USSC Senior Fellow Dr Charles Edel and Non-Resident Senior Fellow Dr John Lee will launch their special report at an event in Sydney, present its findings, and lay out their bold recommendations for navigating the relationship into the future.

Non-Resident Senior Fellow Dr Elsina Wainwright will moderate a discussion with the authors.
