DFAT Pacific Banking Fellowship highlights Griffith’s capacity for positive, lasting impact

Griffith University welcomed delegates from the Reserve Banks of Fiji and Vanuatu this month for the 2018 DFAT Pacific Banking Fellowship program, in pursuit of achieving effective policy outcomes in the South Pacific region and completing joint working papers with researchers.
At the three-week program’s welcome ceremony, Ms Heidi Piper, the Director of Griffith International, described the Fellows – who will also be the crucial members of the long-term collaboration between the central banks and Griffith – as significant ambassadors for the university and Australia.
