About Us

AusVoc can help you write, edit, and publish high quality documents and publications for your projects in international development, health, education and training, environment, community, and more.

Our speciality is international development projects in the Pacific and Southeast Asia, including program documents and education and training materials. We have long-standing involvement with major projects in Papua New Guinea, Fiji, and Indonesia, as well as experience providing targeted support to projects further afield, in countries such as Timor-Leste, Vanuatu, Solomon Islands, Kiribati, Tuvalu, Tonga, Samoa, Federated States of Micronesia, Philippines, and Vietnam.

The AusVoc core team and our trusted associates have worked together for more than 15 years, providing expert support to over 600 projects in 20+ countries, and the creation of 62,000+ pages of professional content. From our base in South-East Queensland, Australia, we have long experience using remote ways of working with teams based in the Asia–Pacific region and throughout Australia, or in-person when required.

We have a wide range of subject matter specialities, including public and clinical health, education and training, early childhood, environment, governance, and community services (especially for women and children, people with disabilities, and other socially-marginalised groups).

AusVoc also has a diverse portfolio beyond our usual areas of speciality, so whatever your area of interest, contact us to discuss the writing, editing, or publishing project that matters to you.
