This online information session is for school educators interested in participating in the 2024-2026 Australia-ASEAN Building Relationships through Intercultural Dialogue and Growing Engagement (BRIDGE) School Partnership Program.

The Australia-ASEAN BRIDGE program is an initiative of the Australian Government Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, funded through the ASEAN-Australia Centre and implemented by Asialink Education (formerly the Asia Education Foundation) at the University of Melbourne, to build rewarding partnerships between schools in Australia and Southeast Asia.

Earlier this year, Australia and Indonesia signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to mark the strengthening of energy transition cooperation and promote investment in energy infrastructure and clean energy manufacturing. The Australian Update 2024 will focus on the green energy transition, looking at areas for Indonesia-Australia collaboration. The main source of pollution in Indonesia is industry (32%) and transport (30%). Within industry, power plants are among the largest polluters, about 150 million tons of CO2 annually. So, the Australian Update 2024 will focus on the domains of transport and industry. 

Join our discussion with industry experts for cutting-edge insights into the opportunities and challenges faced by Indonesia and Australian in the green energy transition.

The aim of the Emerging Leaders Forums is to provide earlier level curriculum entry points for Victorian schools, enabling them to embed global learning and engagement activities into their teaching, learning and student engagement initiatives. It also provides a learning pathway for engagement in the Emerging Leaders Forum - Junior Secondary for Years 7 and 8 students and the Global Youth Forum offered at Year 9 and 10 level.
