A2ELP is now complete.
Congratulations to all Alumni!
The history of A2ELP
The Australia-ASEAN Emerging Leaders Program (A2ELP) was launched in 2016 by the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, and the Australia-ASEAN Council with three clear outcomes at its core:
- enhance the leadership potential of participants;
- strengthen and expand people-to-people, professional, and institutional networks between Australia and Southeast Asia; and
- showcase contemporary Australian and Southeast Asian creativity, innovation and entrepreneurship.
Since its launch, A2ELP has been an in-person three month program with ten participants from across the Southeast Asian region (one participant per ASEAN country) joining five Australian social entrepreneurs from across the country.
A2ELP was delivered through Asialink and the University of Melbourne in 2016 – 2019, as a program over three months each year. From 2021, Social Good Outpost proudly took over running the program, working with new and existing partners, alumni, networks and leaders to deliver leading engagement in our region.
