AARE 2024 Information

We are excited to announce that the 2024 conference will be hosted by Macquarie University at their beautiful Wallumattagal campus situated in bushland in Sydney’s north. The campus has been sympathetically redeveloped recently and has fantastic teaching and learning spaces where we will host AARE24, as well great amenities including The Hub, a lively courtyard in the centre of campus with 18 food and coffee outlets as well the UBar with a huge covered balcony overlooking the lake and bushland. The Macquarie Centre with shopping, cinema and ice skating is across the road from campus, and North Ryde and Macquarie Park have many accommodation options. The journey from campus to Sydney’s CBD will be less than 20 minutes when the new Metro opens in mid 2024.

We had been exploring options for hosting the conference at the University of Sydney, but due to building works and clashes with already committed spaces, they were unable to do so this year. University of Sydney has hosted many very successful AARE conferences and we extend our sincere thanks to the members of the University of Sydney organising committee for all their efforts in seeking out options and supporting AARE.

We thank Macquarie School of Education for their enthusiastic support and work to make AARE24 at Macquarie University happen. We are very much looking forward to working with the local committee and to welcoming delegates to our annual conference there, which is, we think, the first time it has been hosted at Macquarie University.
