The 2019 AIATSIS National Indigenous Research Conference (ANIRC) full program is now available.
Co-convened with QUT, the conference will be held at QUT’s Gardens Point campus in Brisbane over three days, Monday 1 to Wednesday 3 July.
The 2019 theme is Research for the 21st century and will build on previous themes of impact and engagement, to explore the interweaving strands of capacity of research and the transformative capability of Indigenous research.
The conference will draw together researchers, policymakers, cultural and collecting institutions, the corporate sector, and Indigenous organisations and communities to consider the capacity of the research sector to meet the needs of Indigenous policy and community into the future.
