The Australia-ASEAN Council has unveiled a new international partnerships program for Australian schools.
BRIDGE, or Building Relationships through Intercultural Dialogue and Growing Engagement, connects Australian schools with similar schools across South-East Asia. The program builds on a successful partnership program operating with Indonesia since 2008.
Australia-ASEAN Council Chair, Ms Christine Holgate, said BRIDGE will help strengthen Australia's links with South-East Asia and promote increased awareness of the region's diverse cultures.
