UNAAV was thrilled to host an information session for the 2027 Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) Graduate Program, with members from UN Youth, UNAAV Future Leaders Network, Victoria University, International Relations Club and UNAA staff in attendance.

We heard from two senior representatives, Lauren Payntar who is currently acting Assistant Director in the India Branch and Brent Remmer-Hahn, a lawyer and senior policy officer at DFAT. Both offered insights into the Graduate Program and the application process and other pathways into careers at DFAT. It was a lively and informative event, and UNAAV would like to thank Lauren and Brent for their insights and answering questions, and all those who attended.

Applications are now closed for the 2027 Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) Graduate Program.
