AALD (Australian American Leadership Dialogue) is a private diplomatic initiative that fosters collaboration between Australian and American leaders across various sectors. By bringing together government officials, business leaders, educators, media professionals, and community members, AALD aims to review and enhance the parameters of the Australian-American bilateral relationship. Recognizing the importance of this partnership for regional security and economic prosperity, AALD seeks to strengthen the ties between Australia and the United States to contribute to a robust, stable, and economically healthy world. While acknowledging the potential stresses in the bilateral relationship, AALD advocates for careful and thoughtful engagement to ensure the interests of Australia, the United States, and the Indo-Pacific region are served. AALD organizes various programs and events, such as the Australian American Leadership Dialogue, West Coast Leadership Dialogue, Honolulu Leadership Dialogue, Young Leadership Dialogue, and Young Leadership Dialogue Alumni, to facilitate productive discussions and collaboration. Through their initiatives, AALD plays a crucial role in building a stable and prosperous Indo-Pacific region.
