Event Description: 

Welcome to Canberra! The Canberra Regional Committee welcomes anyone in Canberra for the Pre-Conference workshops or arriving early to join us for casual drinks and dinner at Assembly. This is a popular pub and dining establishment in the heart of Canberra's Lonsdale St precinct. Join us for a relaxed evening where you can debrief your day (or travels), grab a decent meal, and meet other attendees. All very welcome!

A Canberra Committee representative will lead a slow wander from the front of the Convention Centre about 5pm (its a 1.5km stroll/20-25 mins), or gather at the venue from 5.30 onwards. Drinks, snacks and dinner can be ordered individually.

Please RSVP so we can advise venue of expected numbers.

This free event has been organised by the AES Canberra Regional Network & friends who are excited to catch up with members and welcome evaluation friends to aes25! The committee is excited to showcase Canberra to all delegates. Our seminar series provides an opportunity for you to meet with AES members and others in the evaluation community and to share and learn from the experiences of fellow evaluators.
