Funded Activity Summary

A Historical Study of Indigenous Higher Education Centres in Australia. Indigenous education centres have evolved and emerged across Australian universities for over thirty years, yet there has never been an independent chronological study of their historical development at the national level. This research documents the visions of those people who instigated the early development of Indigenous education centres in higher education, recording how their early development influenced or was influenced by Indigenous communities and individuals, or by government and university policies. From their humble beginnings right through to their present day expansion and diversity, the project aims to become an important contribution towards Aboriginal history and Australian higher education studies.
