🌎⚖️ We are proud to present our upcoming panel titled "World Order in Transition: Power, Conflict and the Future of International Relations". 🌐🗺️

Join us for insightful discussion on Wednesday the 7th of October at 6pm in the Andrew N. Liveris Building.
🎟️ Tickets go on sale soon! ⏰

The international order is undergoing one of its most significant periods of transformation since the end of the Cold War: great power competition, regional conflicts, shifting alliances, technological disruption, economic fragmentation, and challenges to international law are reshaping global politics in profound ways.

This panel will bring together leading academics from the fields of international relations, international law, security studies, and political economy to explore what these changes mean for Australia, the Indo-Pacific, and the future of global governance. Come prepared to discuss as our panelists examine the changing world order through the lens of their own expertise.
