The ASEAN Australia Education Dialogue (AAED) will strengthen the current links between Australia and ASEAN across key education sectors to build a broader ASEAN-Australia regional and global engagement by connecting thought leaders, key officials and practitioners in education from ASEAN countries and Australia. The delegates will discuss the issues, challenges and opportunities for the future of regional and global engagement in education. The AAED will result in policy initiatives and partnerships between a range of ASEAN and Australian education organisations.
The AAED reflects the ASEAN-Australian commitment to a long-term education partnership informed by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 2030 and Australia’s National Strategy for International Education 2025.
“AAED 2018 provides the opportunity for us to connect in Malaysia with our ASEAN colleagues, further strengthen our existing partnerships and establish new ones”, said Mr Michael Fay, AAED Convenor.
