Vice-Chancellor’s Leadership Scholarship - Pakistan

Deepening ties: Pakistan and Australia's growing alliance

Australia and Pakistan share a rich and evolving bond, highlighted by the growing interpersonal connections among their people. Through collaboration across various domains such as security - which covers areas like defence and police training - human rights advocacy, and initiatives for economic growth and reformation, the Australian Government underscores its commitment to this bilateral partnership.  

The University of Wollongong (UOW) is committed to the increasing cultural diversity that has greatly benefited Australia and UOW. The University is keen to build upon this rich tradition.
