Symposium Proceedings
Reimagining innovation and development of the Vietnam-Australian beef cattle sectors. Strengthening technical collaboration, trade, and investment.
Hanoi 14-15 November, 2023
The symposium was supported by the Australia-Vietnam Enhanced Economic Engagement initiative launched by the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) and was organised in partnership with the Vietnam Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (MARD).
The Institute of Policy and Strategy for Agriculture and Rural Development (IPSARD), Griffith University, FocusGroupGo Asia Pacific (FGGAP) and Meat and Livestock Australia (MLA) were the implementing organisations.
Australia and Vietnam have a long history of research, technical collaboration, trade and investment in the beef and cattle sectors. However, markets and trade, along with external shocks are driving significant changes for both countries. The purpose of the symposium was to take stock of the current situation and explore new mutually beneficial opportunities for technical collaboration, investment, trade, and capability development.
The symposium was a valuable opportunity for leading experts to come together and plot a course for the future, specifically to:
• Address priority challenges in the Vietnam-Australian beef cattle sectors
• Promote technological innovation and cooperation in sector development.
• Enable information sharing in critical areas of interest.
• Strengthen bilateral technical cooperation, investment, and trade.
