Career

Journalism

In 1979 Kingsbury began working as a journalist for Australian Associated Press. He left in 1980 to travel, during which, in 1981, he wrote articles on the civil war in El Salvador, which were published in The Age, The Sydney Morning Herald and the (London) Observer.[1] Kingsbury returned to Melbourne in mid-1981 when he took up a position with The Age newspaper.

In 1985, Kingsbury left The Age to join the Australian Broadcasting Corporation's Radio News Division, moving after a year to Radio Australia, covering Asia and the South Pacific. While at Radio Australia, Kingsbury was awarded the Australian ASEAN Journalists Program in 1988. Kingsbury has since contributed to a number of media outlets, including as 'World' commentator for ABC774[2] and as international affairs commentator for Crikey[3] and is regularly quoted by Australian and international media for comment on regional political affairs.

Academia

Kingsbury lectured in Journalism at Deakin University (1989-1991), before leaving to complete his PhD studies. He returned to Monash University in 1998 as Coordinator of the MA in Asian Studies and Lecturer in Development Studies. While with Monash, in 1999, Kingsbury led the Australia East Timor International Volunteer Program monitoring mission to Timor-Leste's 'popular consultation' for independence.

In 2001, Kingsbury joined Deakin University as a Senior Lecturer in International and Community Development. While with Deakin, in 2005 Kingsbury was adviser to the Free Aceh Movement in the Helsinki peace talks,[4] which ended almost three decades of conflict in the western Indonesian province of Aceh. The mediator of these peace talks, former Finnish President Martti Ahtisaari, was awarded a Nobel Peace Prize in October 2008, 'for his efforts on several continents and over more than three decades', including playing a prominent role in resolving many conflicts in Namibia; Aceh, Indonesia; Kosovo and Iraq, among other areas'. Kingsbury has also advised on conflict resolution to the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam, the West Papua Coalition for National Liberation, on separatist internecine conflict in Nagaland (India) and discussed options for negotiations with the Moro Islamic Liberation Front.

In 2006 Kingsbury was promoted to Associate Professor and in 2010 appointed to a Personal Chair as Professor. While at Deakin University, Kingsbury coordinated election observer missions to Timor-Leste in 2007, 2012, 2017 and 2018. In 2015, he was named Professor of International Politics[5] and in November of the same year he coordinated election observers to Myanmar's general elections.
