Our commitment to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples

We aspire to be the university of choice for Indigenous Australians, investing significantly to attract, nurture, and retain Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students and staff. Our Murmuk Djerring strategic priorities — Leadership; Place, Heritage and Culture; Partnerships; Indigenous Knowledge; and Truth-telling and Justice — form the foundation for this commitment. These five priorities empower the University’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students and staff to emerge as outstanding leaders addressing contemporary challenges.

We're dedicated to enhancing our global reputation in Indigenous research and leadership, expanding academic and student programs. Our commitment extends to inclusive pathways, robust support systems, and the establishment of a dedicated Indigenous Employment Office. To support this commitment, we are also developing a University-wide Cultural Education Program to ensure all of our staff are able to support our vision of fostering a culturally safe, supportive and respectful environment.
