About: 2002-Australia-Asia New Leaders Program


The Australia-Asia New Leaders Program prepares emerging leaders to
play leadership roles in guiding a prosperous and peaceful future for
Australia in the Asian region.

The program expands professional Asia-focused networks, increases
knowledge of the region and deepens cross-cultural understanding and
communication skills.

Asialink is delighted to announce the generous support of Levi Strauss
(Australia) Pty Ltd for the program in 2002.  A number of Levi Strauss
scholarships are available in 2002.

A partnership with The Research Institute of Asia and the Pacific
(RIAP) at the University of Sydney has allowed Asialink to meet
increased demand and deliver programs in both Melbourne and Sydney for
2002.

The Australia-Asia New Leaders Program acknowledges and builds on the
work of Asialink's Weary Dunlop Leadership Program, which operated in
Melbourne from 1996-2000.  The program will work closely with Dunlop
leadership alumni as it expands its national reach.

In 2002, up to twenty participants from Sydney and up to twenty from
Melbourne will be chosen from the corporate, government, community and
non-profit sectors to provide a challenging mix of backgrounds, views
and experiences.

Applications for 2002 close 30 November 2001.  For an application form
