About Us
The Centre for Australia-India Relations is a national platform established by the Australian Government in 2023 to support and facilitate greater collaboration and engagement with India.
The Centre works across all levels of government, industry, academia and civil society to build greater understanding of the Australia-India relationship and the opportunities flowing from our burgeoning connections.
The Centre’s work is focussed on four key areas:
- promoting policy dialogue
- building India business literacy and links
- engaging Indian diaspora communities to support the bilateral relationship
- deepening cultural connections and mutual understanding.
