This week we hosted a special conference on Russian activities and Australian interests in the Indo-Pacific - bringing together nearly 100 members of the diplomatic, defence, and academic communities.

The conference included a keynote address by acclaimed Russian journalist, writer, and filmmaker Mikhail Zygar.

Four expert panels featuring speakers from Australia, Europe, and Asia examined key issues, including: 

• Australia’s complex relationship with Russia
• Hybrid warfare and information operations
• The need for greater Russia literacy, and
• Russia’s broader strategic ambitions.

A wonderful day with many insightful discussions, thanks to all who joined us!
