People of Colour Conference
July 22, 2016 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm AEST
For the first time, students of colour across Australia will have the chance to come together, network and collaborate at the University of Melbourne Student Union’s People of Colour Conference.
Held on 23-24 July at the University of Melbourne, the conference encourages attendance from all students identifying as people of colour due to their African, Asian, Pacific Islander, Aboriginal, Indigenous, Lantinx, Arab, multiracial or other relevant non-white background.
Attendees will have the chance to participate in workshops, panels and keynote addresses with prominent people of colour in professional fields. This is a fantastic opportunity to meet likeminded people and learn skills to increase representation for people of colour on a university level.
Founding Editor, Hoa Pham and current, Editor in Chief, Eleanor Jackson will be speaking on Sunday at the conference.
Students enrolled at ANY tertiary institution in Australia are able to attend.
Tickets can be booked here.

The University of Melbourne Student Union will also be offering a limited number of equity grants for students requiring financial assistance. You can apply here.
