Celebrating the Centre at 10

The Perth USAsia Centre, a leading independent Australian think tank, is celebrating 10 years of strengthening Australia’s relationships with the Indo-Pacific and the United States – educating and empowering its community to better understand the critical issues facing our region.

The Centre was established in Perth in 2013 to capitalise on the wealth of strategic thinkers based in Western Australia, providing a place for leading original research and international engagement. Since June 3, 2013, the Centre has published over 350 research reports and articles and hosted over 750 events in 25 cities across 10 countries, engaging a world-class strategic affairs community of over 27,000 people.

Minister for Northern Australia, Minister for Resources, and Member for Brand, the Honourable Madeleine King MP, was the Centre’s inaugural Chief Operating Officer. She reflects on her time in the role, during which the Centre hosted Indonesia’s sixth president, Professor Doctor Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono.

Minister King says over the past decade, the Perth USAsia Centre has demonstrated itself to be a “zenith of what we can do in international relations here in Perth.”
