NATIONAL CONFERENCE
COMING 2026
We’re excited to share the YAIA National Conference will take place in 2026 in Melbourne, with the theme ‘Diplomacy on the Brink: Navigating Existential Crises in the 21st Century’.
Over two days, young leaders in international relations from across Australia will connect with experts, academics, and industry professionals to explore how Australia can navigate its foreign policy in an increasingly complex world.
The program will feature workshops, panels, keynote speakers, and networking opportunities. More details on tickets and participation will be shared soon. Contact the YAIA team at conference@youngausint.org.au if you’re interested in speaking or getting involved!
