Indonesia capability refers to the knowledge, skills, experience, and networks that enable effective engagement with Indonesia.
Priority will be given to projects that can demonstrate how they improve Australia’s ability to engage with Indonesia by building cultural understanding and knowledge, Indonesian language skills, and sustainable networks across community, schools and universities.
