Washington State Visit

On November 9th, Monash hosted a delegation of 60 people from universities, business and government, led by Washington State Governor, Jay Inslee. The Governor and delegates were on a study and trade mission in Australia to gain insights into our transition to net zero.

The aim of the visit was to deepen understanding of Australia's renewable energy transition and decarbonisation efforts and to establish meaningful connections with experts at Monash University, identifying areas of mutual benefit and collaboration. Robust discussions ensued and we are hopeful that these may lead to collaborative initiatives in the ever-evolving landscape of sustainable energy.
