The Australian Development Scholarships program is part of the Australia Awards initiative announced by the Australian Prime Minister in November 2009. The Australia Awards have been established to maximise the benefit to Australia of its extensive scholarship programs, and to support enduring ties between Australia and our neighbours.

Future awards will focus in particular on the following priority sectors:

    * maternal, neonatal and child health services

    * governance

The program also targets public sector reform and improved standards of governance in both public and private sectors.
