Our vision

Our research vision is to transform lives through robust, engaged, and responsive research that positively impacts local and global education futures.

Our research

Our research is driven by a commitment to positively transform lives. We believe that knowledge, when harnessed creatively and ethically, has the power to bring about profound change. Our research is committed to addressing the most critical challenges in education and fostering innovation that directly improves the well-being of individuals and communities on both a local and global scale.

Strategic Research Centre

Centre for People, Place and Planet

The vision of the Centre is to address and respond to global environmental change through theoretical, conceptual, and methodological innovation, and to build capacity to deliver transformational outcomes. Informed by principles of Indigenous knowledge and involvement, ecosystem approaches, human ecology, and social justice, our research will build evidence for changes to environmental practice and policy. Sustainable and effective research outcomes will align with the global Sustainable Development Goals, bringing our research to the world's stage.
