CONNECT - ENGAGE - INFLUENCE
OVERVIEW
The ASEAN-Australia Education Dialogue (AAED) is a track II diplomacy platform that strengthens Australia’s education and training relationship with key stakeholders in the ASEAN region, including the ASEAN University Network (AUN).
AAED acknowledges the initial support from the Australian Government Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) through the Australia-ASEAN Council (AAC). We recognise the continuing support from many institutions, organisations and individuals in the higher education, vocational education, English Language Teaching and school sectors across Australia and the ASEAN region.
