About the National Centre
Over the past five years, Swinburne has provided national academic and industry leadership with Reconciliation Action Plans (RAPs) and reconciliation. We were the first university to have our RAP (2017-19) recognised by Reconciliation Australia as an Elevate RAP. Our key national commitment in our current RAP (2020-23, also an Elevate) is to further develop our national leadership by creating the National Centre for Reconciliation Practice. The National Centre, to be launched in early 2022 and to be led by Professor Andrew Gunstone, will develop national community, industry and academic understandings on a wide range of significant reconciliation areas, and will strongly contribute to national systemic change in reconciliation.

About the Scholarship
The National Centre is looking for a PhD candidate who will work on a specific project on the Australian reconciliation movement. We are flexible about the discipline the project is based in. Possible disciplines include Indigenous studies, history, public policy, politics, education and psychology. The candidate will be closely integrated with key industry partners, including Reconciliation Australia.
