Since the beginning of 2013, Australian final year medical students have been completing placements on KiraKira from Bond University. In 2014 Bond University received funding from the Australian Government, through Health workforce Australia to allow Physiotherapy, Urban Design and Nutrition Students to also complete work placements in Kirakira. The project has been very successful and for the last four years has continued to receive support from the Australian Government through the New Colombo Plan. In 2018 the project is to be expanded to included Law Students. The project received a Faculty of Health Sciences and Medicine award for making an outstanding contribution to student learning in 2017. Over the last five years there have been almost 200 students from across the University and 50 academic supervisors involved in a project that has provided direct aid and support to the community.
