Transforming the relationship between Aboriginal peoples and the NSW Government

ANU will host the second seminar presenting the Aboriginal Affairs NSW Research Agenda 2018-2023. 

Bringing together the key contributors to the research agenda, the seminar provides an opportunity for you to hear about the policy and research findings of their work and to discuss research implications.

The seminar is open to student, academics, policymakers, practitioners and community members interested in Aboriginal Affairs Policy reform in NSW. Together with Aboriginal communities, the research and policy communities will be critical in delivering the evidence and policy that supports Aboriginal communities and the NSW Government to determine what works, what's worth trying and what success looks like.
