Out today! I argue Aus students + Indonesian hosts have profound potential for 🇦🇺 🇮🇩 relationship-building + the broader goals of the @NewColomboPlan in the Indo-Pacific as the program enters its 2nd decade @dfat @ACICIS @TimWattsMP @ANU_CHL @IndonesiaatANU @seacsydney @ASPI_org

The positive experience of young Australians in Indonesia is not often reported on, so @natasyajour and I spoke to them, how it changed their minds and lives.
Thanks @elewilliams @RobbieGaspar23, Maya Willis and Sophie Hewitt @ACICIS for sharing.
