31 July 1999 Support is provided for a limited number of visits of not less than two weeks by Australian scholars each year to specific research institutes and universities in Vietnam to promote the development of scholarly relations between Australian and Vietnamese Scholars.
Support provided includes accommodation and living costs and local hospitality arrangements.
Applicants are responsible for cost of airfare, but support will be provided per diem and for internal travel during the period of stay. This exchange agreement provides for one established Australian scholar per year, who is able to cover travel to Europe independently, and who wishes to do research in Sweden, to visit for a month. The Swedish Academy will be responsible for the cost of accommodation and a per diem during the scholar's visit to a maximum of SEK 30,000. The sponsor supports undergraduate tertiary students in Australia who are preparing theses as part of their studies. All 3rd year undergraduate students are eligible to apply.
