Previous events
To coincide with the opening of applications for the 2009 round of Endeavour Awards, a series of seminars were delivered in each capital city in Australia for representatives of home and host organisations as well as other interested organisations and individuals. At the same time, DEEWR hosted a function for our alumni and award holders, together wit other invited guests. These were a wonderful opportunity for the award holders and alumni to meet with each other, and with the Endeavour Awards team. Below are some photos of the events.
Verena Tadler (Austria) - 2008 Endeavour Europe Award
Verena followed her keen interest in International Law and Human Rights and undertook an Endeavour Postgraduate Award at the University of New South Wales. Verena was able to travel to her favourite destination, Australia to complete her Master of Law.
“The Endeavour Award enabled me to study in a multi-cultural environment together with other law students from all over the world. Hence, I got an insight into many different legal systems which I would have otherwise never been able to get.”
As a result of her Endeavour Award, Verena will be able to pass on the knowledge she has obtained about different legal systems to her colleagues at home in Austria. She will also help to address the shortage of legal professionals in Austria, specialising in international law.
