The Youth Ambassadors Development program provides opportunities for young Australians to undertake short-term placements in developing countries to share their skills and experiences, and work side-by-side with locals in a range of different fields. 

Joanna said she was delighted to be accepted in to the Youth Ambassadors program, which will provide her with life-changing experiences. 

‘It’s an incredible opportunity and something that Trinity students could look to take part in when they graduate from their studies – it’s going to be an amazing year.’

Joanna was a former residential student at Trinity and finished a double degree in Arts/Science before studying for her Honours degree in 2005. She then entered the Australian Public Service in Canberra as part of the graduate recruitment program in 2006.
