Reception at the Australian Embassy

The Ambassador of Australia to Spain, Virginia Greville, hosted a dinner party at her residence for the Australian Leaders during which they discussed the goals of the programme as well as current affairs with an impact on the two countries.

Appointed Ambassador of Australia to Spain in May 2015, Virginia Greville has extensive experience at the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, and was the former Ambassador to Chile.

Spain and Australia began diplomatic relations in 1967 and they have, according to their respective governments, a growing friendship with strong trade and investment links (including through SACF's patrons) as well as cultural and scientific ties through the presence of Instituto Cervantes in Sydney and CSIC and CDTI's agreements with Australian institutions and companies. The two countries also have bilateral agreements such as the Work and Holiday scheme, which allows young Spanish and Australian travellers to spend a period of time in the other country.
