The Australia-China Youth Dialogue Alumni Association was formed in 2012 to ensure that all participants who have attended the ACYD over the years will continue to benefit. It is designed to ensure that all participants can continue to meet together to discuss the challenges and opportunities for the Australia China relationship and further mutual understanding amongst the two nations.

Participating in the Alumni Association offers all alumni the opportunities to positivity impact their community through implementing concepts explored during the ACYD. Additionally, the association provides a sustainable forum for alumni to network with each other, stay in contact with the ACYD organisers and work together to advance shared goals.

A formal alumni event will be organized in Melbourne, Sydney, Beijing and Shanghai annually and the Alumni Gala event will take place during ACYD in the county where the ACYD is held that year. Events are exclusively open to alumni from all years.
