The Pacific Economic Bulletin has established its credentials as the leading forum for the discussion of economic and political governance issues relevant to the whole of the Pacific region.

It publishes an annual economic and political survey of Papua New Guinea and Fiji, and a survey of other Pacific island countries regularly. As well it carries the latest in research from world experts and a policy discussion of the most recent issues.

Edited by Ron Duncan and Maree Tait out of the Crawford School at the Australian National University, the Pacific Economic Bulletin is supported by AusAID, and managed by a board of Australian and overseas scholars and Australian government representatives.

The Pacific Economic Bulletin creates the agenda for a lively regional discussion that reaches all sections of the Australian and island countries.

The Crawford School at the Australian National University works with a large number of organisations throughout the Pacific region to encourage and stimulate discussions of all sorts of issues related to the development of the region and the improvement of the relationship between Australia and the region. In the past, we have already worked with the University of Papua New Guinea, the Institute of National Affairs, the National Research Institute, Education Milne Bay and the University of Goroka on a variety of community, parliamentary and executive updates on Papua New Guinea. In Australia we have presented updates with the High Commission for Fiji, the Lowy Institute of International Policy and the Foundation for Development Cooperation.

The Pacific and PNG Update series presents research published in the Pacific Economic Bulletin and is strongly supported by AusAID

'It’s been a real pleasure working with your team for the Samoan update in Apia. We need the keep promoting the ANU/NUS umbrella for open debates on development issues here. It would be a very interesting programme to have two similar economies which are both highly dependent on private remittances.’
