Summary of publication
This report covers all aspects of the Australia Awards program in Vietnam (AAV) from 2009 to 2016.
Australia seeks to support Vietnam's economic growth and poverty reduction by access to new professional and technical capacity and leadership skills contributed by an expanded group of Vietnamese graduates from Australian tertiary programs and study placements.
Key outcomes of the program were:
- Alumni in Vietnam make personal contributions to priority development areas.
- Alumni improve the quality of teaching and research programs in Vietnamese universities, and support the national program to expand skills in English.
- Women and men have equal opportunity of obtaining masters and PhD scholarships.
- Alumni return with and maintain linkages and positive perceptions of Australia that contribute to strengthening the bilateral relationship.
