I am very pleased to report that an application led by the EU Centre at RMIT, host of the the PASCAL Centre for Australasia, for a Jean Monnet Network on the role of the EU in the implementation of the SDGs in Asia Pacific has been supported. This also involves colleagues from the Australian National University (ANU), the University of Canterbury, the University of Glasgow and the National University of Singapore (NUS), including PASCAL Directors, Robbie Guevera and MIke Osborne.
