Mackenzie Lang
Board President
Mackenzie Lang is the Board President of the Australia-China Youth Association, previously serving as the 2023 National Secretary, 2022 Careers Director, and as Content Officer for three consecutive Australia-China Emerging Leaders Summit before that. He is deeply passionate about Chinese history and culture, having studied late Qing and early Republican history at the University of Queensland, and has had the good fortune to repeatedly travel to China since his first visit in 2013. He joined ACYA in order to contribute to the bilateral relationship and help provide opportunities for Chinese and Australians travelling and studying in each other's countries.
In his time as President Mackenzie has driven a series of sweeping reforms to ACYA, including our transition to charitable status, streamlining our organisational structure, expansion of our events and initiatives including the Women’s Network and the adoption of policies and procedures designed to keep ACYA as the leading youth-led NGO.
