China Matters
International Affairs
Independent Australian policy institute, founded in 2014, aimed at advancing sound China policy. Closed in 2024.
About us
China Matters was an independent organisation that strived to advance sound China policy. We were unique in Australia. We engaged business executives, public servants, politicians, and university leaders about challenging policy choices in the Australia-China relationship. We generated public debate about Australia’s relationship with the People’s Republic of China, and aimed to inject nuance and realism into discussions. On the basis of solid China expertise and Chinese-language sources, we researched problematic policy issues with the goal of formulating recommendations and providing analysis on how these policy challenges are viewed in Beijing. The organisation closed in mid-2024. The China Matters-UTS:ACRI Fellowship continues our legacy. Visit the China Matters website chinamatters.org.au to read our policy briefs and reports and learn about our events. China Matters did not have an institutional view.

The People’s Republic of China (PRC) is no longer the same country as it was pre-pandemic. It is struggling economically. It views the region and the world, as well as its own regional and global roles, differently than it did before 2020. The nation views Australia differently too. The PRC’s increasing foreign policy assertiveness, and Beijing and Canberra’s fundamentally different views on the role the US should play in the regional order against a backdrop of intensifying US-PRC strategic competition, means that the Australia-PRC relationship is unlikely to return to the sunny optimism of 2015. Where is the PRC’s foreign policy now headed? How do Australia watchers in the PRC now think about the bilateral relationship? How can Prime Minister Anthony Albanese’s impending visit be judged a success? How much ballast is there in the current positive trajectory? The Australia-China Relations Institute at the University of Technology Sydney (UTS:ACRI) in partnership with China Matters will host a panel discussion with three China-watchers who have recently returned from trips to Beijing to discuss these questions and more. Panellists include Professor James Laurenceson, Director of UTS:ACRI; Ms Linda Jakobson, Founding Director and Deputy Chair of China Matters and Senior Advisor of the China Office of Finnish Industries; and Ms Yun Jiang, AIIA China Matters Fellow and UTS:ACRI Visiting Fellow. The panel will be moderated by Mr Samuel Y., co-host of China Tonight on ABC TV. At the event UTS:ACRI and China Matters will announce a new exciting joint initiative. This is a hybrid event, with the opportunity to attend in-person or online. November 9, 6.00pm - 7.30pm AEDT. For those attending in-person, refreshments will be served from 5.30 pm.
