Supported by the Australia-Korea Foundation (AKF), the Korea Press Foundation (KPF), and the Walkley Foundation, the annual media exchange was established to showcase the strategic bilateral relationship between Australia and the ROK, while providing journalists access to key industry, economic and security experts for reporting and stakeholder relations.
The 2023 media exchange cohort consisted of, Clare Armstrong (The Daily Telegraph), Edward Boyd (Sky News Australia), Sarah Dingle (ABC RN), Tansy Harcourt (The Australian), Peter Ker (AFR) and Rachel Pupazzoni (ABC)
In 2022 the Walkley Foundation was awarded a $120,000 grant by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade to support the exchanges.
This month (April 2024) the Foundation will escort a cohort of six journalists from South Korea to Sydney, Melbourne and Perth to meet business and government stakeholders, cultural experts and Australian media counterparts, with a focus on advanced science and technology.
