    Submission to Joint Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs, Defence and Trade: Inquiry into the strategic effectiveness and outcomes of Australia’s aid program in the Indo-Pacific and its role in supporting our regional interests.

    Pryke, Jonathan | July 2018
    Abstract
    I welcome the opportunity to make a submission to the Join Standing Committee’s review of Australia’s aid program. Over the past five years, through successive budget cuts, a hasty merger of AusAID into DFAT, and a consequent attrition of development professionals, the aid program has been left under considerable strain. Despite the best efforts of both diplomatic and development professionals a merger of cultures, objectives, personnel and resources of this magnitude has been very disruptive. To improve the strategic and development effectiveness of Australian aid more reasoned and well measured reforms are necessary.

      ASEAN in Australia’s Indo-Pacific Outlook 

      Ha, Hoang Thi (ISEAS Yusof Ishak Institute, 2018-04-20)
      This article aims to locate the place of ASEAN in Australia’s Indo-Pacific outlook, by dissecting Australia’s defense and foreign policy formulations, its strategic interests vis-à-vis ASEAN, and the outcomes of the AASS. It argues that Australia’s embrace of the Indo-Pacific does not undermine the value of ASEAN in Australian foreign policy. On the contrary, Australia’s interests in ASEAN’s open ...

      The Costs of Covid: Australia’s Economic Prospects in a Wounded World 

      Edwards, John (Lowy Institute For International Policy, 2020-08-20)
      After infecting more than 23 000 Australians and killing over 420, the coronavirus pandemic in Australia is fading sooner and with less economic damage than expected. While the secondary wave of infection in Victoria is a big setback and there may yet be other regional or local outbreaks, the economic recovery already evident is set to continue. Reckoning total COVID-19 fatalities compared to ...

      The development benefits of expanding Pacific access to Australia’s labour market 

      Berkelmans, Leon; Pryke, Jonathan (Lowy Institute For International Policy, 2016-12-30)
      A stable and prosperous Pacific Islands region is essential for Australia’s security and foreign policy. Australia is investing significant amounts of aid in the development of the region with very mixed results. The economic, demographic, governance, and climatic challenges the Pacific faces will make sustained development of the region even more difficult in the years to come. It is for this reason ...
