Post SARS information seminar
Post SARS (Severe acute respiratory syndrome) information seminar was developed in response to the anxiety experienced by international students travelling home to a SARS affected area. The event was a great success and was able to reassure students in relation to travelling during the holiday period. The event was recognised by the City of Melbourne through the Safety Award.
In 2003, AFIS was also successful in auspicing Chinese Music Group from Melbourne University to successfully apply for funding from the Victorian Government for a musical that explores the life of international students in Victoria named ‘My Fa Lady’.
