PREPARING THE NEXT GENERATION OF AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL SECURITY LEADERS

IMG_7940.JPG

Welcome

The Australian Crisis Simulation Summit (ACSS) is Australia’s premier student-led national security conference, hosted at the Australian National University (ANU).

​Through immersive, high-stakes simulations, we challenge and develop the next generation of Australian national security leaders – equipping them with the experience, insight, and networks to shape the nation’s future.

To support this immersive experience, delegates use custom-built software that integrates:

  • Live news channel from our in-house Summit Broadcasting Corporation (SBC).

  • Real-time newsfeeds, dynamic social media streams, and intelligence updates.

  • Interactive communication between teams via custom-built software.

What makes the ACSS special?

The most rewarding part of the ACSS is watching the delegates grow in such a short span of time. Over four days, you get to watch them challenge themselves, collaborate, and develop into emerging national security leaders. It's a privilege to help create an environment where that kind of transformation can happen
