Building on CEW’s existing Scholarship Program, this partnership would develop a scholarship for one Australian woman working in international trade or looking to promote trade and investment between the two countries. This could contribute to the strengthening of people-to-people connections and growing the network of women pioneering stronger trade and investment relations between Australia and Indonesia.
An equivalent scholarship for an Indonesian woman working in international trade or looking to promote trade and investment between the two countries would be supported by the Indonesia Business Coalition for Women Empowerment (IBCWE).
Applications will be open to candidates nationally and one scholarship will be awarded to the value of AUD$20,000 financed by DFAT.
