Join us on Ngunnawal-Ngambri country and explore the capital of the world’s oldest continent. Canberra is Australia’s planned, ‘bush capital’. If you are visiting us in person for this conference, take time to explore this cosmopolitan, tiny city on the edge of stark and rugged bush wilderness.
Spend time exploring the many free national galleries, museums and gardens in the city, or go further afield to run into a few marsupial friends in our national parks and bush walks.
