What is ACELS 13?

The Australia-China Emerging Leaders’ Summit (ACELS) is ACYA’s signature event, uniting and enriching a new generation of Australia-China literate leaders.

ACELS 13 will be held over four days, bringing together 90 delegates to discuss highly topical issues in the Australia-China space. Under the theme of ‘Bridging the Gap’, participants will undertake an intensive four-day program of professional and personal development, ultimately fostering a deeper understanding of our two nations and genuine people-to-people connections. This includes engagement with business, diplomatic, academic leaders, a variety of panels, workshops, and seminars, and – of course – an array of cultural and social events.

Who is eligible to attend?

We are looking for delegates who are:

  • Between the ages of 18 and 30;
  • Currently an undergraduate or postgraduate student, or a young professional
  • Able to demonstrate a keen interest in the relationship between Australia and China, whether it be culturally, professional or both.
  • Please note previous involvement with ACYA is not a prerequisite to attend ACELS 13.

What is the application process?

To attend ACELS 13 delegates must successfully complete the following steps:

  1. Fill out and submit the application form before 11.59pm CST, Sunday, 13th June, 2021;
  2. If accepted, delegates must then pay the Delegate Fee; and
  3. Closer to the date of the Summit, delegates will also fill out a form to provide further details so we can make sure your experience is as smooth as possible.
