Programs to Build Timor-Leste

AusAID is currently promoting three programs geared towards stimulating private sector growth in Timor-Leste. Two of these, East Timor Community Assistance Scheme (ETCAS) and The Human Rights Small Grants Scheme, are offering Timorese organizations a valuable opportunity to procure funds to be invested locally. The third program, the Australian Development Scholarship (ADS), is providing Timorese nationals a chance to continue either their undergraduate or postgraduate study in Australia, cultivating appropriate skills for working in a developing nation.

For more information on these opportunities, visit any of PDT’s offices in Dili, Baucau, Covalima or Viqueque, or check out http://www.ausaid.gov.au/.
