Australia's Diplomatic Deficit: Reinvesting in our instruments of international policy

In July 2008 the Lowy Institute for International Policy established a Blue Ribbon Panel to review the state of Australia’s instruments of international policy. The Panel comprised Jillian Broadbent AO, Professor William Maley AM, Brad Orgill, Professor Peter Shergold AC, Ric Smith AO PSM and Allan Gyngell (Chairman), eminent Australians with backgrounds in government, business and academia. It was supported by the Institute’s research staff. This is the Panel’s report.
