The Australia Awards Fellowships 2024 is generously sponsored by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade of the Australian Government, with the aim of establishing strong networks of influence and leadership. This will be achieved by strengthening partnerships between Australian organizations and other partner organizations.
The Australia Awards Fellowships also provide short-term opportunities for in-Australia study, research, and professional development activities.
