Australia sits in a unique position to contribute to, and influence, international trade and investment policy, practices and norms. As a middle-income economy, an important trader in resources, agriculture and services and a major investment source and destination, our views carry weight. Australia was active in the creation of the international institutions which underpin international trade and investment. A number of institutions and scholars across Australia continue to undertake the critical research needed to inform business, policy and consumer decisions. ACITI showcases these individuals and institutions and their work to promote debate and collaboration.

ACITI 2023 Survey on International Trade an Investment (ITI) Research and Teaching at Australian Universities
The ACITI 2023 Survey on ITI Research and Teaching at Australian Universities is now available HERE.
The 2023 Survey presents a snapshot of the current state of teaching and research on ITI topics at Australian Universities. In advancing ACITI’s purpose to showcase and promote this work, the survey will be conducted annually to support greater dissemination of academic work and engagement on important ITI topics.
Results of the 2023 Survey indicate a possible narrowing of the ITI academic cohort with few early career academics responding to the survey, relatively little engagement with unions and business, and a reliance on traditional mechanisms for disseminating research. These results suggest there may be a need to encourage students to consider this important field and support expanded and new ways to disseminate this research. The survey will inform ACITI’s work going forward. We welcome collaboration with other interested organisations and individuals in this endeavour.
