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 the 2026 AAC will be held from Wednesday 2 to Friday 4 December at the Australian National University in Canberra.

The conference dinner will be held on Thursday 3 December at the National Museum of Australia.

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.
