ACOLA Parliamentary Seminar

This seminar is part of a collaboration between the Parliamentary Library and the Australian Council of Learned Academies (ACOLA) to bring Australia’s leading minds from Australia’s Learned Academies and other experts to important topics of interest to Parliament.

The Antarctic is of enormous significance, not least to Australia, for its pristine environment, rich fisheries and natural resources. In this webinar Professor Rosemary Rayfuse and Professor Steven Chown explore the increasing pressures of strategic competition in the area, threatening the relative stability created by the Antarctic Treaty since the 1960s.

The seminar was held on 14 April 2021 and recorded by the Parliamentary Library.
