Join us for an illuminating exploration of political landscapes across Southeast Asia at the annual SSEAC Politics in Action forum. Hear about the latest developments shaping the region's socio-political fabric, featuring esteemed scholars and experts from Australia and the region.
This flagship forum, now in its 9th year, provides deep insight into the current political context, offering concise yet comprehensive analysis of key political, social, and economic developments in six Southeast Asian nations. In this year's forum, expect engaging presentations from our country-specialists regarding Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Singapore, and Vietnam.
Each session, carefully crafted to be accessible to both general and scholarly audiences, and especially relevant to researchers active in Southeast Asia, will include a 20-minute expert presentation followed by an interactive Q&A session.
Don't miss this opportunity to deepen your understanding of Southeast Asia's ever-changing political environment. Join us as we navigate the complexities and nuances of the region's political dynamics at Politics in Action 2024.
