New Colombo Plan Mobility Program

Grant Description

The New Colombo Plan (NCP) Mobility Program 2026 Round supports Australian undergraduate students to develop Indo-Pacific capability through immersive, short-term (four-to-nine week) study, internships, mentorships, practicums, and/or research in eligible host locations. With an annual budget allocation of approximately $8.17 million for 2025–26, the program aims to strengthen Australia’s strategic, economic, and people-to-people links with the Indo-Pacific by fostering Asia literacy, language proficiency, and job-ready skills among participants. Projects may target priority host locations, Vietnamese language pathways, or priority Asian languages, contributing to enduring institutional and business connections between Australia and the region.
