About

Join our First Nations Research Lead to explore pathways to success for First Nations students in higher education, examining:
• The systemic challenges within Australian education that have historically hindered access and success for First Nations learners.
• The transformative opportunities offered by higher education institutions, including targeted programs, culturally responsive pedagogies, and community-driven initiatives.
• Case studies and success stories showcasing innovative strategies that have improved participation, retention, and graduation rates for First Nations students.

This discussion will also reflect on the broader impact of these initiatives and discuss how universities, policymakers, and communities can continue fostering sustainable and meaningful pathways for First Nations students.

The session will conclude with a discussion on the next steps and opportunities for further progress.
