High-calibre, young Muslim leaders are encouraged to apply for this prestigious bilateral interfaith program and become international ambassadors for Indonesian Islam.
"This exchange program for young Indonesian and Australian Muslims continues to encourage open dialogue and promote greater understanding of faith, tolerance and diversity between both countries," Australian Ambassador to Indonesia Greg Moriarty said.
Now approaching its ninth year and a highly regarded model for fostering inter-faith dialogue, the Australia-Indonesia Muslim Exchange Program aims to build links between Muslim communities in Australia and Indonesia.
Paramadina University has acted as a valued partner and Indonesian coordinator of the program since its inception.
The program is funded by the Australian Government through the Australia-Indonesia Institute. For more than two decades, the Institute has fulfilled an important role in developing relations between Australia and Indonesia and promoting greater mutual understanding through projects in the arts, music, education, youth, civil society, interfaith, Australian Studies, media and sport.(*)
