Public Affairs Section — Sydney

The Public Affairs Section staff work closely with other sections of the American Mission and with many Australian organizations to foster bilateral understanding.

The Public Affairs Section sponsors seminars, exhibits, speakers, and other programs where Australians and Americans can exchange ideas and information on economic issues, shared environmental concerns, American government and history, education, security, and a wide variety of other topics. The Public Affairs Section has offices in Canberra and Sydney.

U.S. Information Resource Centers

In Australia, both Public Affairs offices maintain sophisticated information resource centers, where librarians use professional journals, database resources, and the Internet to provide current information to Australian government officials, university researchers, and other specialists. These centers do not stock books, magazines or newspapers for recreational reading.

Study in the U.S.

The Public Affairs Section facilitates U.S. educational advising for individuals interested in U.S. study options.
