The Chinese in Papua New Guinea is a much-anticipated book that emerged from a two-day workshop that discussed how we can better understand past and current relationships between Australians, Papua New Guineans and Chinese. The book responds to this task by emphasizing how people of different Chinese heritage have lived and worked in Papua New Guinea and how, through such processes, they have transformed themselves, Papua New Guinea and Australia.

The launch will feature speeches, a Q&A Session, book signing opportunities and light refreshments.

Bookings are essential as space is limited and to assist us with catering requirements.
