Haryana and Australia are looking at ways to strengthen cooperation in sports, skilled workforce placement, higher education and investment following a meeting between Haryana officials and Australian High Commissioner Philip Green OAM.
The meeting focused on expanding opportunities between the state and Australia, including potential partnerships involving Australian universities.
According to the Haryana government, Australian universities are exploring options to increase their presence in the state. Such partnerships could support education, skills development and research, while creating further opportunities for students and professionals.
Sports was another area discussed, with both sides identifying scope for cooperation based on Haryana’s established sporting talent. Potential areas include athlete development and initiatives aimed at improving training and sporting infrastructure.
The discussions also covered skilled workforce placement, with the focus on creating pathways for trained professionals to access international opportunities while supporting closer links between Haryana and Australia.
The state government said the discussions form part of its wider efforts to connect Haryana’s talent and institutions with international partners and attract investment.
The meeting comes as India and Australia continue to expand cooperation across education, skills, trade and people-to-people links, with states playing a growing role in developing practical partnerships.
The Haryana government said it plans to pursue the opportunities discussed under its broader “Go Global” approach, with the aim of creating international pathways for talent in the state.

Dear Reader,The Indian Sun exists for one reason: to tell stories that might otherwise go unheard.
We report on local councils, state politics, small businesses and cultural festivals. We focus on the Indian diaspora and the wider multicultural community with care, balance and accountability.
