As the impacts of #COVID19 have shown us, the international environment confronting 🇮🇩 & 🇦🇺 is more complex, contested & uncertain than ever before. 🇦🇺 will continue to stand with 🇮🇩 during this unprecedented pandemic & whatever follows. My The Jakarta Post oped: thejakartapost.com/paper/2020/07/…

Thanks Iona Main and The Lowy Institute for a great piece on COVID-19's effect on study abroad, with particular shout out to Acicis

Another highlight for Acicis in 2015 was the 20th anniversary reunion weekend in Yogyakarta. It was a fitting celebration of a unique point in our history & it was inspiring to hear from our alumni #acicis25years #acicisalumni

For over 20 years, Acicis Perth was hosted by Murdoch University. In 2016 we relocated to UWA - ACICIS would like to express our sincere appreciation for the assistance & support provided by both host institutions over the past 25 years #acicis25years

Could you imagine an Acicis for India? In 2016, the Commonwealth Department of Training commissioned a feasibility study that cited us as the exemplar for a similar org tasked with increasing Australian student mobility to India #acicis25years acicis.edu.au/news/general/f…

Spotted my little profile as an Acicis alumnus in amongst all the great data on Indonesia study abroad programs. So sad to hear of staff redundancies in both Australia and Indonesia as a result of covid and the lack of Australian government support.

Acicis Annual Report for 2019 is out. Took a little longer to put together this year due to COVID-19, but we got there. Feels great to put out an emphatic statement of Acicis' value and worth as an organisation, after a v. difficult 3-4 months. 2019 was a VERY good year.

The total number of Aus uni students undertaking an international learning experience as part of their degree grew by 6% in 2018. Download the Acicis 2019 Annual Report for more stats on the Aus outbound student mobility sector here: acicis.edu.au/acicis-annual-…

Indonesia was the 7th most popular learning abroad destination for Aus uni students in 2018 (up from 8th in 2017). 1,885 students undertook a learning abroad experience in Indonesia in 2018. Download the 2019 Acicis Annual Report to find out more - acicis.edu.au/acicis-annual-…

It's a sad week at Acicis as 60% of our staff depart due to redundancy. Unfortunately I am one of them. I've written some reflections on my 7 years with ACICIS in case you feel like a read: acicis.edu.au/news/general/f…

Mbak Diana Diana Pramesti I wish I could have worked with you longer! I will be sure to drop by when I'm allowed back to Indonesia. We will never be too far from a member of keluarga ACICIS! Peluk jauh kembali dari Perth. All the best for you for the next step as well 😘

Janelle May Acicis Thanks for the great work at ACICIS from you and all other staff.

I was so moved to read Janelle May's heartfelt reflections after 7 years of outstanding contribution to the development of Acicis . With such amazing individuals enhancing students' experiences in Indonesia, it's not surprising ACICIS was so successful. Marise Payne chris bowen

Thanks Caitlin Byrne !
