    Dec 2, 2024 | devpolicy.org | Pat Conroy

    Transparency and accountability are the cornerstones of any effective government program. I am proud to announce the launch of AusDevPortal — a new, online transparency portal dedicated to Australia’s international development work. This transparency uplift is part of the Government’s commitment to ensuring that every dollar of development funding contributes to the outcomes that Australia and our partners want to achieve.

  • Tonga and His Majesty’s Armed Forces: A military made for peace

    Sep 6, 2024 | samoaobserver.ws | James Marape |Pat Conroy |Miranda Forsyth |Sinclair Dinnen

    Tonga is a unique country in many regards. It is illegal to exercise or do chores on Sundays and every Tongan high school has a brass band. Tonga was also the only Pacific country to avoid being colonised. But Tonga’s military – with only 590 personnel including support staff, and today one of only three sovereign militaries in the Pacific – was not set up to deter potential aggressors from attack or to project power. Tonga’s military instead serves as an arm for peace and diplomacy.

  • The PEV ballot: a stand-out success with two exceptions

    Sep 4, 2024 | samoaobserver.ws | James Marape |Pat Conroy |Miranda Forsyth |Sinclair Dinnen

    Information on the number of registrations for the ballot for Australia’s new Pacific Engagement Visa has been released. 56,127 people across the Pacific applied for the visa by registering for the ballot. Demand for the PEV was highest in Fiji, where there were 102 ballot registrations -- or primary applicants -- for every visa (Figure 1). Tonga took second place, with 37 primary applicants for each visa, and Timor-Leste was in third spot with 23 per visa.
