Welcome to Our Website PNGAAA

Welcome to the website of the Papua New Guinea-Australia Alumni Association.

The Alumni Association was established following a unanimous decision of almost 250 delegates to the 2006 Inaugural Alumni Conference held in Port Moresby in November 2006.

Membership of the Association is open to any Papua New Guinean who has studied at or through an Australian educational institution - either privately funded or under a sponsored program.

Australia considers its relationship with PNG to be one of its deepest and most enduring. It is strong on many levels, including the people-to-people links formed by the large number of Papua New Guineans who study in Australia.

The Association further strengthens the links between the two countries and gives graduates a forum to contribute to debate about PNG's future and ways in which both countries can benefit from a continuing relationship.

Many thousands of Papua New Guineans have studied in Australia, both before and after Independence, and since 1999, around 1,000 Papua New Guineans have been awarded Australian Development Scholarships (ADS) or similar scholarship programs.
