The Hamer Scholarships Program provides $10,000 each for China or Indonesia, or $15,000 each for Japan or Korea.
Please note the Victorian Government will continue to monitor the COVID-19 outbreak and will provide advice as appropriate to successful applicants.
What’s new?
The program has been revamped in 2020 with a sharpened business focus, supporting Victorian businesses to strengthen their Asia-engagement.
