Michael Brosowski

Michael Paul Brosowski is an Australian teacher and activist. Brosowski came to Vietnam in 2002 to teach English at the University of Economics. He became involved with helping street children and by early 2003, he had quit his university job to concentrate full-time on the needs of the street children. In March 2004 the Blue Dragon Children's Foundation was registered in Australia. In September 2004, it was registered as an independent non-government organisation in Vietnam. In 2011 Brosowski was named one of that year's CNN Heroes,[1] and in 2012 was made a member of the Order of Australia in recognition of his work defending the rights of Vietnamese children.[2]

Early life

Michael lived early years of his life in Sydney and got his high school diploma in north west. He then obtained a university degree in arts and education and started his work as teacher of English as a second language.[3]
