About
Ever wondered what it takes to be a researcher?
Join us for an Aboriginal Research Yarn
Aboriginal people interested in research are invited to come along for a relaxed, informal yarn with four Aboriginal researchers from different pathways and careers. Hear about their personal journeys into research, what sparked their curiosity, and the questions they’ve set out to answer. Together we’ll explore the role and perspective of Aboriginal people in research, and why our voices, knowledges and lived experience matter. Whether you’re curious, just starting out, or have never thought of yourself as a researcher, this is a chance to be inspired, ask questions, and discover how you could shape research that makes a difference for our communities.
11.00 Arrival and Introductions
11.30 Panel
12.30 Working Lunch
About the Presenters
Associate Professor Jocelyn Jones - Vice-Chancellor Professoriate Research Fellow within Kurongkurl Katitjin
Kerri Colegate - Senior Project Officer Aboriginal Health
Jacinta Walton - Aboriginal Project Officer
