Australia Doubles Number of Scholarships to the Asia-Pacific Region

Australia Doubles Number of Scholarships to the Asia-Pacific Region:

"'The initiative brings together Australian Development Scholarships (ADS), managed by Australia's international aid agency, AusAID, and Endeavour Scholarships, administered by the Department of Education, Science and Training (DEST)."

I am really happy to read we have increased our funding to help the development of our South Pacific region. It's where we live and we do need to work in partnership with our neighbours. This money will provide 19, 000 scholarships and one of the aims is to helps foster future leaders in the area. The article doean't say how people get the scholarships, what the selection criteria are and in which countries they are available and for what kind of study. I'd really like to know!!
