Great Game On: Global power shifts, geopolitics & Australia’s future

The Rotary Club of Sydney invites you to a pivotal September meeting featuring an address by Dr. Geoff Raby AO, Australia’s former ambassador to China.

The international landscape is undergoing profound change. With China’s rise as a dominant force in Eurasia and the potential return of Trump-era U.S. foreign policy, the balance of global power is shifting. As China emerges as the pre-eminent power across the enormous Eurasian landscape, nations worldwide must reassess their strategic positions.

What does this new multipolar world order mean for the key players and, crucially, for Australia? How will the changing balance of power between the U.S. and China redefine global stability, security, and economic futures?

Dr. Raby will present his seminal new book, Great Game On: The contest for Central Asia and Global Supremacy (Melbourne University Press). This important work comes alongside a recent update to his earlier book, China's Grand Strategy and Australia's Future in the New Global Order. His analysis provides an essential framework for understanding the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.

This event is a must for business leaders, academics, Rotarians, and any engaged citizen seeking to understand the forces shaping our world.
