Respect, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion

Our work across respect, equity, diversity and inclusion aims to empower our communities with knowledge, skills, and tools they can use to lead change. With our communities, we're working towards a safer, more equal and inclusive Monash – for everyone.

Our commitment to Indigenous Peoples

Our work in equity, diversity and inclusion is about moving forward and progressing together as a University and a community. But to move forward, it's imperative to first recognise the past, present and ongoing legacy of colonisation in Australia, and to be cognisant of the unlearning that is required in the decolonial process. We must actively listen and learn from Indigenous voices, be guided by the principles of Aboriginal self-determination and acknowledge the unique position First Nations Peoples hold in the decision-making and future of their unceded lands and waters.
