Drew Pavlou is an Australian political activist and former university senator from the University of Queensland best known for his criticism of the Chinese government and Chinese Communist Party.[1][2][3][4] Pavlou is also known for organising protests on-campus in support of the 2019–20 Hong Kong protests, activism for increased scrutiny around universities' international relationships and against Chinese government policies on Uyghurs and Tibetans.[5][6][7][8][9]

In May 2020, he was suspended for two years from the University of Queensland who alleged 11 instances of misconduct. An appeal of his case by the UQ Senate Disciplinary Appeals Committee upheld two of the initial charges and reduced his suspension to one semester.[10] The Queensland Crime and Corruption Commission rejected an application by Pavlou alleging the university's chancellor and vice-chancellor, Peter Høj and Peter Varghese, had engaged in "corrupt conduct", citing no supporting evidence.[11] Pavlou returned to UQ in early 2021.[12][13][10]
