And while Mark used it to reflect on his own journey, I suspect the sentiment holds true for many who have taken part in this unique <a href=\"https:\/\/www.griffith.edu.au\/asia-institute\/partnerships-collaborations\/asia-futures-fellowship-program\">Brisbane-Beijing program<\/a> \u2014 delivered by Griffith Asia Institute (GAI) in partnership with Peking University over the past decade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most likely it also strikes a chord with GAI\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.griffith.edu.au\/asia-institute\/global-wil-internships\">global interns<\/a> who reach the end\nof their Asia internships this week and will begin their journey home. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Like the Asia Future Fellows, our global interns embody Griffith\u2019s\ncommitment to understanding and engaging with the nations of Asia and the\nPacific.&nbsp; Of course, it\u2019s not always an easy role to play, and no doubt\neach of them have faced a multitude of challenges along the way. But I am\nconfident that they\u2019ve also experienced moments of insight, forged new\nfriendships and exceeded what they thought possible.&nbsp; And, I hope that\nthey will return home with a better sense of our wider Asia-Pacific\nneighbourhood, a deeper understanding of themselves and excitement for what the\nfuture might hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The advice and insights that our students receive in-country from our\nindustry and academic hosts, partners and supporters, including Australian\nChambers of Commerce, Trade &amp; Investment Queensland and Australian\nEmbassies is simply brilliant \u2013 and we are truly thankful for it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These programs highlight the fact that \u2018partnership\u2019 has been a driving\nforce for GAI\u2019s agenda through 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We have continued to build on longstanding partnerships\u2014including with\nthe Queensland Art Gallery &amp; Gallery of Modern Art (QAGOMA). Now heading\ninto its 15<sup>th<\/sup>&nbsp;year, brings our community into key debates about\nthe future of our region through the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.griffith.edu.au\/asia-institute\/partnerships-collaborations\/perspectivesasia\"><em>Perspectives: Asia<\/em>&nbsp;<\/a>series. (And, just\na heads-up, we\u2019re already working on a fabulous line-up for the 2020 series).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We\u2019ve also forged new partnerships\u2014both within and external to the\nUniversity\u2014that have widened the reach of our engagement including with the\nBrisbane City Council and Griffith Cities Institute to deliver the Asia-Pacific\nCities Summit\u2014<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=lkGHOjQBn0o&amp;feature=youtube_gdata_player\">Young Professionals\u2019 Forum<\/a>. Our inaugural\nWitoelar Dialogue on climate change and sustainable development held in\npartnership with Griffith\u2019s Climate Change Response Program, the\nAustralia-Indonesia Institute and Universitas Indonesia offers another example.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And, we\u2019ve celebrated our partnerships. Two highlights for me include\nwelcoming <a href=\"https:\/\/www.griffith.edu.au\/asia-institute\/partnerships-collaborations\/collaborative-australia-indonesia-program\">Dr Erna Witoelar<\/a> into the academic\ncommunity of Griffith University, and more recently hosting <a href=\"https:\/\/news.griffith.edu.au\/2019\/11\/13\/dame-meg-taylor-says-the-blue-pacific-must-work-together\/\">Dame Meg Taylor, Secretary<\/a>-General of the\nPacific Island Forum Secretariat (PIFS) as our 2019 Asia Lecture keynote. The contribution\nthese two women have made to regional and global diplomacy and governance is\nextraordinary. I\u2019m pleased we could bring their voices to the fore and look\nforward to working with them in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lastly, across all our activities, we\u2019ve relied on the partnership of\nour members and friends, who inform and inspire our agenda through their\nresearch expertise, teaching excellence and extensive networks and connections.\nWe are especially proud of their individual and collective successes. Though\ntoo many to note individually, they span a range of themes, disciplines and\ngeographies\u2014from agribusiness to central banking in the South Pacific\u2014from\nhuman rights to ocean economies. But one feature shared across these endeavours\nis the aspiration for positive impact on the lives of people and communities\nwithin our region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The year really has been one of journey and transformation. Thank you\nfor being a part of it. I\u2019m especially thankful to the GAI team who have been a\ndriving force in bringing our agenda together, and I look forward to working\nwith all our partners\u2014students, members, friends and colleagues\u2014as we take this\nagenda forward into 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Caitlin Byrne<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CAITLIN BYRNE\u00a0 |\u00a0 2019 Asia Future Fellow, Mark Batakin reminded us recently of an old Chinese proverb: \u2018He who returns from a journey is not the same as he who left\u2019.
