Curtin's New Colombo Plan team is dedicated to providing an authentic intercultural program to lift knowledge of the Indo-Pacific region. The project provides mutual growth for remote pre-service teachers in India and our teachers-in-training here in Western Australia.
We are all dedicated to delivering a memorable and transformative student experience that emphasises the importance of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDG) and the ground-breaking New Colombo Plan.
Join thousands of students whom participate in the NCP!
This website is designed in best practice and modelled to engage our future students in authentic opportunities. Our team strives to achieve the outcomes of this exciting Government signature initiative:
Lift knowledge of the Indo-Pacific in Australia by supporting undergraduates to study in the region.
Our modified 10-week cultural program is aimed at fostering intercultural understanding and engagement with the Indo-Pacific region. This year's focus is Malaysia, Singapore and Sri Lanka.
Encourage two-way flow of students between Australia and the rest of our region to transform our relationship.
The New Colombo Plan project promotes dynamic collaboration opportunities between tertiary students.
Ensures Australia's graduates have the skills and work-based experience to contribute to our domestic and regional economy.
By aligning with the New Colombo Plan's values in the context of the UNSDG, students are given the opportunity to gain a holistic learning and teaching experience with a strong practical application.
