Ms Naomi Cook, Development Counsellor at the Australian Embassy in Vietnam, said: “For many decades, Australia and Vietnam have shared a belief in the transformative power of education . The Australian Government Scholarships represent a shared vision of opening up opportunities for learning, promoting meaningful knowledge exchange, and creating lasting friendships.”

Over the past 10 years, 514 Vietnamese students have received Australian Government scholarships through the Aus4Skills Program - Australia's pioneering human resource development program in Vietnam - and joined the Australian alumni network in Vietnam with more than 7,500 members to work together to bring about change across the country.

This dynamic community is making a broad impact, from government agencies to community organizations, academic research, and business – driving reforms in health , education, gender equality, environment, infrastructure, and digital transformation. Their leadership and expertise are helping Vietnam respond to challenges and seize opportunities for sustainable development.

Many alumni have contributed to strengthening gender equality policies, improving training in the public sector, pioneering digital transformation and inclusive education.

Ms. Ha Quynh Nga, one of the students preparing to study abroad for the Master of Public Policy at Monash University, affirmed: “I am very excited to enhance my career and education through the course in Australia. I hope to learn from international best practices in designing financial policies and supporting businesses to improve the competitiveness of Vietnamese enterprises, promote innovation and strengthen the foundation for sustainable economic growth.”

According to the Australian Ambassador to Vietnam, the scholarships will continue to be maintained through the Australian Government program, along with the Mekong-Australia Partnership Scholarship. This ensures that potential Vietnamese leaders continue to have the opportunity to access world-class education and cooperate to respond to regional challenges.
