Australia: AIATSIS is proud to announce a new initiative to support Indigenous researchers.

[Harold Schiffman]

AIATSIS is proud to announce a new initiative to support Indigenous
researchers.

In partnership with the Department of Education, Employment and
Workplace Relations, AIATSIS has established an Indigenous Researchers
Fund to support a range of opportunities to visit AIATSIS for short
periods in order to further their research or to engage with current
public policy debates.
The Fund will provide $1 million dollars over three years to support
Indigenous research both within and outside the university sector.
This prestigious national research program will allow Research Fellows
and Scholars to undertake research in their fields of interest and,
where appropriate, work with relevant government departments to
discuss policy and practice.

For further information about the positions, contact Mr Tony Boxall,
phone 02 6246 1145, email tony.boxall AT aiatsis.gov.au, or visit the
