The Australia-ASEAN Council (AAC) was launched by the Australian Government in September 2015 to generate opportunities for Australian business, education, science and innovation, and the arts to work with partners in South-East Asia.
The AAC provides grants to selected projects which aim to promote Australia's interests in South-East Asia through activities to enhance awareness, understanding and links between people and institutions. Funding is awarded through a competitive selection process. Application forms, funding guidelines and further information about the ACC’s programs are available on the Australia-ASEAN Council website.
