Delegate - Australia Vietnam Young Leadership Dialogue 2024

On-site
  • Melbourne , Victoria, Australia

Job description

The 2024 Dialogue will be held in person in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia from 26 to 30 August 2024


The Australia-Vietnam Leadership Dialogue delivers a Young Leadership Dialogue each year with locations rotating between the two countries. The Dialogue involves a five-day, residential program that brings together 20 highly influential, visionary, young leaders from 25 35 (10 from Australia and 10 from Vietnam). The program is an opportunity for Delegates to not only deepen the bilateral relationship but also undergo a transformative experience to accelerate their leadership skills and impact journey. Through the program and by being part of a powerful alumni network, Delegates will build the skills and connections to shape and strengthen their countries and the region in the coming decades.


This year the theme is "Strategic Partners: Elevating Our Region". The program will challenge our Delegates to think more critically and deeply about their role and responsibility in supporting Australia, Vietnam and the bilateral relationship. Delegates will address key issues and topics relating to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and reflect on how their respective countries and the bilateral relationship can continue to achieve sustainable development. 


This is a particularly important year marking the momentous milestone of the 50th anniversary of the Australia - ASEAN bilateral relationship. The AVLD will be incorporating these celebrations into our programs and engagements this year.


The dialogue will focus on 'Strategic Partners: Elevating Our Regions' of the following themes:


  1. Quality Education

  2. Gender Equality

  3. Sustainable Cities and Communities

  4. Partnerships for the Goals

  5. Climate Actions

  6. Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions

Hosting in Melbourne, Victoria, the 2024 Dialogue will connect our Delegates with key stakeholders working to further the Australia-Vietnam bilateral relationship across Australia and Vietnam.
