Promoting Inclusion

The Australian Government is committed to advancing gender equality, disability equity, and social inclusion across its international development programs. 

In line with this commitment, Australia Awards PNG promotes equitable access to scholarships and program activities for people who experience barriers to participation including people with disability and individuals from rural and remote areas. Targeted support is applied across the scholarship cycle and reviewed regularly to ensure it remains effective and sustainable.

Gender Equality

Gender equality is a priority for the Australian Government.  

Australia Awards PNG promotes gender equality across the scholarship cycle, supporting women’s participation in education, leadership and the economy, and ensuring that women and men can equally benefit from opportunities provided by the program.
