KEYNOTE

Future focused curriculum and the new university: A First Nations petition/entreaty
Professor Steven Larkin, Pro Vice-Chancellor Indigenous Engagement, 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide.

This keynote presentation discusses the joint commitment to design a future focused听curriculum for the new university as both momentous and profound given the new university鈥檚 compelling aspirations to eliminate educational disadvantage, prioritise First Nations success, and achieve social equity. A new curriculum provides the new university with unique once-in-a-lifetime opportunities to shape these reform agendas through its provision of a future focused听tertiary education program. This paper advocates that unwavering commitments to decolonisation and the dismantling of colonial mindsets that continue to permeate higher education are fundamental to this new direction.
