Australia-Indonesia BRIDGE School Partnerships Program
About
The Australia-Indonesia BRIDGE School Partnerships Program is funded by the Australian Government through the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade and delivered by Asialink Education at the University of Melbourne.
The program connects Australian and Indonesian schools in meaningful bilateral partnerships. Since 2008, BRIDGE has been building bridges between cultures, classrooms, and communities.
BRIDGE establishes school-to-school relationships, provides comprehensive teacher professional learning programs—both online and in-country—and connects students through engaging global classroom activities.
