The Australian Lebanese Association started to be established in Australia from 1947 with branches in New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, South Australia, Canberra, and one branch in New Zealand.  On request by the Lebanese Government, in 1959 the World Lebanese Cultural Union (WLCU) was established.  At this time, all the Associations became a chapter of the WLCU, under the Geographical Region Council (GRC) for Australia and New Zealand.
