Reconciliation Action Plan
Swinburne’s Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) builds on our long-standing commitment to self-determination, Indigenous knowledges and cultural safety.
Our vision for Reconciliation
Swinburne is a place where reconciliation is core to our culture. We ensure Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples are culturally safe, and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander self-determination and knowledges are embedded across the university. We find ways to express this through our strategic priorities of future-ready learners, research with impact, and innovative enterprise.
It shapes the way we govern; how we work and employ our staff; our external partnerships; how we engage with students and develop their experience and learning; and the way we research and innovate. We continue to develop our national thought leadership in reconciliation
Elevate status
Swinburne was the first Australian university to achieve 'Elevate' status for our second Reconciliation Action Plan 2017–2019 and has also achieved 'Elevate' status for our third Reconciliation Action Plan 2020–2023.
