Who We Are
The Program
Aus4Growth (A4G) is a partnership between Australia and Vietnam and aims to close gaps in policy and practice to support enhanced economic growth, trade and investment, clean energy, transport, inclusion, and digital acceleration.
Building on previous programs – Aus4Reform and Aus4Transport – A4G integrates emerging initiatives in energy, trade, inclusion, and digital. A4G will directly support the priorities of the Australia – Vietnam Development Partnership Plan 2025 – 2030 and the Australia-Vietnam Comprehensive Strategic Partnership (March 2024).
The A4G program is structured around six core domains: Economy, Trade, Energy, Transport, Digital, and Gender Equality, Disability and Social Inclusion (GEDSI). Each domain is designed with its own set of outcomes and activities, aligned with relevant Government of Vietnam (GoV) ministries to support national development priorities. Each domain is led by a Domain Lead, who provides sector-specific expertise, strategic and technical oversight, and coordination of program activities, ensuring alignment with the Australian Government Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) and GoV objectives.
Aus4Growth is supported by the Australian Government and implemented by Boston Consulting Group
