The Asian Economics Centre is housed in the Department of Economics of the University of Melbourne. The Centre brings together academic staff with research interests in economic issues facing the countries of the Asia-Pacific region and broader issues of global economic development. Its activities include research, conferences and teaching related to Asia and the Pacific. The Centre also strongly contributes to the University's goal of "knowledge transfer" with members often being requested to provide advice and undertake research consultancies for international organizations.
Faculty members affiliated with the Centre have researched, taught and published widely on development issues. Their research interests cover a variety of fields including development economics, trade and international economics, political economy, and experimental economics.
All members have an interest in Asia but many also work on other geographic regions. Countries and regions of particular interest to current members are: Indonesia; India; China; and outside Asia, Latin America.
