Research students have three minutes to present a compelling oration on their thesis topic and its significance in a language appropriate to an intelligent but non-specialist audience. Australia could double or even triple its aid to poverty stricken Myanmar (Burma) without compromising its political ideals says the inaugural winner of Deakin University's Three Minute Thesis (3MT), Anthony Ware. A PhD candidate in the School of Political and International Studies, Anthony impressed the 3MT judges with both his presentation style and the powerful narrative in his research. He told the audience at the final of Deakin's 3MT competition on August 27th that Myanmar, better known to many as Burma, is a desperately poor country.
