Held at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Sydney, workshop attendees from multi-sectors including creative and digital, government, social enterprise and corporate sectors came together to discuss common issues, challenges and opportunities being faced by both countries and to vision the future of the Australia China relationship.

CAMP launched on June 1 with network drinks at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney within Vivid Ideas Festival 2014. Throughout the night, the 120 strong and diverse community were asked ‘What makes a great relationship?’ and ‘What are your hopes for the Australia China relationship in 2050? The interviews and survey responses collected fed into the data in the participatory workshop the following day.
The China Australia Millennial Project (CAMP) cultivates opportunities, develops networks and co-creates new solutions to issues common to both Australia and China. In collaboration with Vivid Ideas 2015, CAMP brings young innovators from China and Australia together to develop ventures over a 3 month incubator program, mentored by global change-makers. australiachina.org
