State of the Pacific 2020

The ANU Department of Pacific Affairs’ biennial State of the Pacific (SOTP) conference will take place on 2 and 3 July 2020 at The Australian National University in Canberra.

A Pacific Research Program flagship event, the State of the Pacific conference brings together leading academics, policymakers, business leaders, civil society representatives and the media to present on, discuss and debate current issues of interest concerning the Pacific Islands region.

SOTP2020 will involve presentations of new research and analysis from DPA scholars and a number of other eminent figures and scholars from the Pacific. It will generate discussions on the factors shaping the forward-looking research agenda on the Pacific Islands region.

SOTP2020 will directly follow the 9th Oceanic Conference on International Studies, hosted by the Coral Bell School of Asia Pacific Affairs at ANU, which is taking place from 29 June to 1 July 2019.
