Australasian AID Conference: looking forward to AAC2025

The Australasian AID Conference (AAC), held annually in partnership with The Asia Foundation, has become an integral part of the Australian and regional aid calendar.

We are pleased to announce ACC2025 will be held from Wednesday 3 to Friday 5 December at the Australian National University in Canberra.

The aim of the conference is to bring together researchers from across Australia, the Pacific, Asia, and beyond who are working on aid and international development policy (the AID in the conference title) to share insights, promote collaboration, and help develop the research community.

In this episode, we feature three speakers from the 2024 conference held in December:

• Phoury Bun, Research Fellow, Cambodia Development Research Institute
  >> conference presentation
• Ruth Honculada-Georget, Social Policy and Program Coordinator, United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization
  >> conference presentation
• Jack Hennessy, PhD candidate, Centre for Health Economics, Monash University and Health Economist, Fred Hollows Foundation
  >> conference presentation  >> Devex news article

Plus we talk to the Development Policy Centre’s Senior Research Officer Cameron Hill about how you can apply to speak at this year’s event and support available for early career researchers based in Australia and developing countries.
