Episode #233 features Peter Varghese — widely regarded as one of
Australia’s most influential architects of foreign policy. He
currently serves as Chancellor of the University of Queensland
and previously held two of the Australian Government’s most
senior diplomatic roles: Secretary of the Department of Foreign
Affairs and Trade and Australia’s High Commissioner to India.
Born in Kenya and arriving in Australia in the 1960's under the
White Australia Policy, Peter rose from “accidental public
servant” to one of the nation’s most influential foreign policy
leaders — advising Prime Ministers, running Australia’s peak
intelligence agency, shaping DFAT, crafting the India strategy,
and now driving UQ’s global and Australia–India partnerships.
In this conversation with Vidit Agarwal, Peter reflects on his
identity, diplomacy, the craft of clear thinking, Australia-India
relations and the lessons from a career defined by courage,
conviction and national impact.
It’s time to explore your curiosity — please enjoy.
