Indonesians committed to shaping the future of their country are invited to
apply for the 2008 Australian Development Scholarships (ADS).
"The scholarships are an important opportunity for Indonesians to further
their education and build networks in Australia ," Australian Ambassador's
to Indonesia Bill Farmer said. "This academic and personal experience is
invaluable and helps talented Indonesians make a difference on their return
to Indonesia ."
The scholarships are managed by the Australian Agency for International
Development (AusAID) and provide funding for study at Masters and Doctorate
levels in Australia . They are targeted to individuals who are committed to
addressing development issues in sustainable growth and economic
management; democracy, justice and good governance; investing in people,
including in health and education; and safety and peace.
"The Australian Scholarships program is conducted in close partnership with
the Indonesian Government. The impact of the program is visible through the
thousands of ADS alumni who have returned to Indonesia and contribute to
this country in areas of development priority," Mr Farmer said.
The program aims to improve the quality of human resource in Indonesia and
the fields of study offered are annually reviewed based on the development
needs of Indonesia .
Up to 300 ADS scholarships are available to commence in 2009-10, with half
allocated to women. Thirty per cent are provided to people from eastern
Indonesia and Aceh.
ADS is a merit-based scholarship program available to people from the
government and non-government sectors who hold an S1 degree. Candidates are
