Tender ID: 597781
Tender Details
Tender Description
The Australian Government is committed to implementing a First Nations approach to foreign policy, including trade and international development. The objective of a First Nations approach to foreign policy is to better project the shared and full identity of Australia in our foreign policy, deepen our collaboration with key global partners, strengthen resilience in the Indo-Pacific, and deliver enduring benefits for First Nations Australians. A priority for the Office is to lift the participation of First Nations Australians in international meetings, and to strengthen First Nations partnerships across the Indo-Pacific. The Office will do this through the First Nations International Fellowships Grants Opportunity and Partnerships Grants Opportunity. The Fellowship Grants Opportunity is to enhance the number of First Nations Australians participating in international meetings. The Partnerships Grants Opportunity is to enable First Nations Australians to build sustainable partnerships across the Indo-Pacific. The objectives of the program are to: deepen Australia’s partnerships in the Pacific; advance First Nations trade and investment; progress First Nations’ rights and interests globally; and elevate First Nations cultural diplomacy.
