About the Proposal

The Tonga National University (TNU) School of Science and Technology (SST) is a premier technical and vocational education provider in Tonga. It is registered with Tonga National Qualifications and Accreditation Board (TNQAB) under the Ministry of Education and Training (MET) and offers courses in carpentry, welding, electrical, plumbing, and automotive.

SUMMARY OF THE PROJECT
The Southeast Asia Gender-Based Violence (GBV) Prevention Platform (the Platform) is an AUD20 million investment over five years (2023-24 to 2028-29). The investment will build on Australia's leadership in GBV prevention and response, by addressing a need and demand for increased investment in, and coordination of, GBV prevention initiatives in the Southeast Asia region. The Platform's guiding principles include: locally driven, evidence-based, intersectional, survivor-centred and trauma informed, adaptive, collaborative and catalysing, minimise harm, accessible and innovative. It will bring together partner governments, WROs, NGOs, donors, international organisations, and regional bodies, providing a convening platform for these stakeholders to collaborate to build capacity and evidence, and improve and accelerate action to prevent GBV.
 
The Platform will utilise and build on global evidence and learning to support practitioners to strengthen and increase locally informed and led evidence-based policy and practice to prevent GBV within households, communities and countries across diverse settings. This includes both careful and high-quality adaptation of evidence-based models from other regions, support the capture and use of locally informed and led GBV prevention evidence and practice, as well as support to develop, strengthen and test new and innovative approaches to GBV prevention. The Platform will leverage Australian government partnerships with UN Women and UNFPA, and several complementary DFAT bilateral and regional investments. In addition, it will link Southeast Asian knowledge, capacity and practice to global, multilateral and Australian GBV prevention initiatives to extend and amplify program impacts and outcomes.
 
The regional Secretariat will be supported by Collaborator team (Cowater International Inc. consortium), whose main role is to support organisational infrastructure (IT, HR, finance etc.) and organisational development of the Platform. This support is complemented by a Technical Partner (Social Development Direct) who will build the Secretariat's capacity in GBV primary prevention.

Background

Australia is Fiji’s largest bilateral development assistance partner. The Australian Government provides support to Fiji through a range of modalities including direct bilateral programs, partnerships with civil society and multilateral organisations, and investments in education and capacity development.

The Australia Awards program is a flagship initiative of the Australian Government that contributes to the long-term development needs of partner countries by building human capital and strengthening institutional capability. Australia Awards are offered to citizens of Fiji through long-term scholarships and short-term training opportunities.

Australia Awards Fiji contributes to three core outcomes:

1. Alumni use their skills, knowledge and networks to contribute to sustainable development.

2. Alumni contribute to cooperation between Australia and Fiji.

3. Alumni view Australia, Australians and Australian expertise positively

Short courses are a key modality within the Australia Awards program. These programs provide targeted, practical training designed to address priority capability gaps across government and partner organisations. Short courses typically combine classroom-based learning, exposure to Australian practice and structured workplace application.

Abt Global is the implementing service provider for the Fiji Program Support Platform (FPSP). FPSP provides program management, procurement, logistics and technical support services for the delivery of Australia’s development program in Fiji.

Through FPSP, Abt Global is responsible for procuring and managing short course delivery under the Australia Awards Fiji program.
