In November 2019, the University held a research colloquium on Place and Indigenous cultural recognition. An outcome of the Colloquium was an acknowledgement that the University’s histories are contested and the need to formally acknowledge our institutional and colonial past and our complicity with respect to eugenics and scientific racism. On this basis and in order to meet our 20-year strategy, Advancing Melbourne and RAP 3 commitments with respect to Place, the University has commissioned an Indigenous led research project to properly articulate that contested history. Join Inala Cooper in conversation with historians Dr Ross Jones and Dr James Waghorne about this project.
