We are pleased to share our latest report, Improving Indo-Pacific MaritimeGovernance: Innovations from YCAPS-La Trobe Asia Maritime GENIE Program. This collection of five policy briefs (excluding the introduction) was first published in Australian Outlook from February to March, 2025.
YCAPS and La Trobe Asia co-designed a series of tailored online professional development workshops aimed at developing skillsets and fostering innovation maturity. These training events were complemented by in-person workshops in Jakarta and Sydney. From June 2024 to March 2025, senior policy experts mentored participants from Australia and Southeast Asia and helped them develop their ideas into policy recommendations for the Australian government.
