Congratulations to Joanne Wallis and A/Prof Tim Legrand for their sterling work on Australian Journal of International Affairs., the greatest little academic journal on political science and international relations in Australia! (I might be biased).

Looking forward to doing this all again, but somewhat bigger next time, and a bit different 🇯🇵🇦🇺🇫🇯🇳🇿. Thanks to the @japanfoundation!

Thanks to Eleanor Shiori Hughes for mentioning the @aiianational The Japan Foundation 国際交流基金 Indo-Pacific Cooperation Network in this recent podcast. Applications for the program, which includes research meets and study tours across the region open soon! plus.econvue.com/p/richard-katz…

Nice to hang out with conference friends near a small estuary that the locals seem proud of.

I don’t even put milk in coffee, but my 🇳🇿 inherent nationalism for the land of my birth has gotten me riled at this. economist.com/culture/2024/0…

What a pleasure it was for Australian Institute of International Affairs to host a forum on 🇦🇺 Australia-Korea 🇰🇷 cooperation in the Indo-Pacific on a fine Autumn day at AIIA NSW’s Glover Cottages!

Looking forward to discussing Indo-Pacific security with brilliant colleagues in Sydney today! 🇰🇷🇦🇺🌎 AIIA NSW Bryce Wakefield

At Australian Institute of International Affairs, we enjoyed organising the Indo-Pacific Cooperation Network on resilience with The Japan Foundation 国際交流基金, which The White House lauded for “promoting exchanges… addressing common issues facing the Indo-Pacific region, such as… disaster management.”

It was a real treat to address, along with Australian Institute of International Affairs President Heather Smith and AIIA NSW President Ian Lincoln, our AIIA New South Wales branch last night as it celebrated its centenary. Here’s to another 💯 years of foreign affairs. 🥂

Very pleased to welcome Professor Llewelyn Hughes to the board of Australian Institute of International Affairs as our new research chair! internationalaffairs.org.au/news-item/new-…

Great seeing such excellent friends and colleagues at the ANU National Security College #securingourfuture conference - the Patalano selfie technique never fails!

Uh-oh! 🇯🇵 Japan is moving away from pacifism again! How many times is that now since 1954? (Nice to see 麻生太郎's Australian Institute of International Affairs Conference speech mentioned in the 🇦🇺 Australian media now too!) Financial Review afr.com/world/asia/jap….
