The Research Committee of the Australian Institute of International Affairs (AIIA) is delighted to announce that the 2018 Workshop Support Grant has been awarded to Dr Nengye Liu.

Dr Liu is a Senior Lecturer at the University of Adelaide Law School, and we warmly congratulate him on the award for his workshop on “Exploring Australia’s China Strategy in Antarctic Governance.

The AIIA’s Workshop Support Grant is an award of up to $7,500 and is made to support a workshop leading to a publication on a contemporary topic of relevance to Australia’s international affairs.

Funds can be used to defray the cost of hosting a workshop or preparing the results of the workshop for publication. If desired, the AIIA can provide a venue at its National Office in Canberra or a state office, or it can be held at another venue or as part of a wider event.

This grant aims to raise awareness of the AIIA’s role supporting debate on foreign policy.

The AIIA’s Research Committee will continue to run it’s Workshop Support Grant again next year.
