Australian Development Scholarships (ADS) 2011/2012 for African Students

Welcome to the Australia Awards website for Africa, an initiative of the Australian Government.

The Australia Awards initiative was announced by the Australian Prime Minister in 2009 and aims to maximise the benefit of the Australian Government’s extensive scholarship programs, and to support enduring ties between Australia and our neighbours.

The Australia Awards initiative brings the Australian Government’s scholarship programs together under the one Australia Awards brand.

In 2010-11, the Australia Awards program in Africa will provide both long awards (Australian Development Scholarships) and short-term awards to nationals from 25 countries across Africa.

This website is designed to be a useful tool for you to find out more information about eligibility criteria, country specific details, the institutions at which awards (scholarships) can be undertaken, information about Australia and the regions where the institutions are located, as well as details on the forum (chat room) and alumni to connect with past and present awardees.

Should you require further information on the Australia Awards program in Africa we would encourage you to contact us directly.
