The Centre for Canadian-Australian Studies at the University of Wollongong is dedicated to comparative and interdisciplinary study related to Canada and particularly to comparative study between Australia and Canada. It is only the second Canadian Studies Centre to be established in Australia.
The Centre was established on Canada Day, July 1st 2000 and was officially launched by Senator Vivienne Poy who presented the inaugural Nortel Networks' Canadian Studies Address. This is now an annual event which features a prominent Canadian speaker.
Despite its youth, Wollongong’s Centre for Canadian-Australian Studies has already established a variety of industry, community and government partnerships and been involved with a diverse array of events and publications. The Canadian Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade and Nortel are particularly important supporters of the Centre and its activities.
