In the wake of recent Australia-India Defence and Foreign Ministers’ meetings, the United States Studies Centre and the Observer Research Foundation (ORF) are co-hosting a webinar to explore this evolving bilateral relationship.

Hear from leading voices from India and Australia, including ORF’s Sayantan Haldar and Pratnashree Basu, USSC’s Maitri Fellow Rushali Saha, and ANU National Security College’s Dr David Brewster, in a conversation moderated by Dr Lavina Lee, Director of Foreign Policy and Defence at the USSC.

The panel will explore the progression of the Australia-India relationship towards increased operational maritime cooperation, including in areas such as maritime domain awareness, undersea cable security and the role of the Quad in shaping regional outcomes.

The discussion will also consider where deeper collaboration may be needed to support a stable, resilient Indian Ocean region.
