Launch of UC CIRI - Tom Calma (22 Jul 2014)

Late in 2013 a group of UC researchers interested in Indigenous issues came together and formed the University of Canberra Collaborative Indigenous Research Initiative (UC CIRI). The purpose of the group is to encourage coordination and sharing of information on Indigenous research at UC and in the wider community, with the aims of collaboration, growth, support, impact, profile and resources.

UC CIRI was launched on 22 July 2014 by Dr Tom Calma AO, Chancellor of the University of Canberra and we were delighted to have Aunty Agnes Shea, elder of the Ngunnawal people, conduct the 'Welcome to Country' at the event.
