Position overview
The ANU College of Asia and the Pacific (CAP) leads intellectual engagement with the Asia-Pacific region through research, teaching and contributions to public debate, and seeks to set the international standard for scholarship concerning the region.

The Fellow or Senior Policy Fellow will engage with other consortium members, participating in the management and governance of the PRP as well as make vigorous contributions to current policy thinking, analysis and debate in Devpolicy’s fields of research, including on economic development and labour mobility in the Pacific and PNG.
