I am delighted to have established Sydney Institute for Public & International Affairs, SIPIA. SIPIA aims to provide a platform for critical discussion, to broaden local debate and foster alternative voices beyond the prevailing mainstream narrative.

SIPIA aims to provide an alternative perspective on public and international affairs with specific focus on Australia, the Asia Pacific region as well as West Asia.

It aims to hold academic forums, conferences and host leading national and international figures to discuss current social, political, and international issues with a future objective of publishing material on public and international affairs.
