Australian Government events while in New York

The Australian Government was extremely welcoming and helpful while we were in New York. They hosted two events that we attended, as well as supporting our attendance and presentations at the Conference of States Parties at the United Nations.
  1. Australian Civil Society Reception with H.E. Ms Gillian Bird Ambassador and Permanent Representative to the United Nations (Sunday 9th June)
  2. Australian delegation debriefing after the Conference of States Parties at the Australian Mission to the UN (Friday 14th June)
Additionally, the Australian Government co-sponsored our Speech Pathology Australia/International Communication Project Side Event.
