Nala Karla spaces

The Nala Karla rooms are welcoming spaces located across ECU campuses where Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students can study, connect with others, or take time to recharge. These spaces provide computers, printing acilities and quiet study areas, while also offering a culturally safe environment that supports connection to identity, culture and Community.

Cultural support

Students can also connect with our Elder-in-Residence, who offers cultural guidance, mentorship and a supportive presence for students when they need advice, encouragement or a listening ear.
