XSPI is a recent Australian (non-government) initiative to increase the amount and impact of international development assistance in Asia and the Pacific through focused cross sector collaboration between its five key sectors contributing sectors and national partners. These sectors comprise Australia’s business, government, NGO/NFP, philanthropy/private capital, and academia/health/medical research sectors. XSPI has identified Bangladesh, Indonesia, and PNG as the initial priority countries for South Asia, Southeast Asia, and Melanesia, respectively.

The High Commission’s collaboration with XSPI being purely consultative in nature will create no financial implications and decision-making role in each other’s activities. The MoU shall be valid for five years.
