24.01.2022 ACAA Video Competition WinnersYour Story During COVID-19 #alumni #internationalstudents #austchina #cohesion From mid-April to the end of May, ACAA had received a number of inspiring entries from Chinese international students and alumni in both China and Australia. These videos faithfully recorded their lives and study during the pandemic with their insights. Some of the videos reflected how pandemic has affected student life in many countries. We congratulate our award-wi...nning students and alumni! Their videos were creative, reflected how students faced up to challenges during the pandemic, addressed community issues, and delivered positive messages and suggestions for the way ahead. Other inspiring entries were received from the University of Melbourne, University of Sydney, Monash University, Box Hill TAFE, Flinders University, and La Trobe University. We are particularly grateful to the Scanlon Foundation for its support of this initiative and through it, for bringing better understanding to the community of the challenges now confronted by international students.
