A private diplomatic
initiative for Australian
and American Leaders
Welcome to the Australian American Leadership Dialogue
The Australian American Leadership Dialogue (AALD) is a private diplomatic initiative, which brings together Australian and American Leaders from government, enterprise, space and technology, media, education and the community to help review and refine the parameters of the Australian American bilateral relationship.
Australia’s relationship with the United States is a cornerstone of global engagement. As Australia’s number one strategic and economic partner, the United States is critical to Australia’s capacity to enhance regional security and help underwrite economic and cultural prosperity, not only for Australians and Americans, but for the entirety of the Indo Pacific region.
