Ethics, Advocacy and Expertise; Anthropology in Australia - Day 2
Anthrōprospective and the Centre for Native Title Anthropology collaborated in September 2023 to host two thought-provoking events. Our aim was to explore the intersection of ethics, advocacy, and expertise in the field of anthropology in Australia. On the second day of the series, we gathered at Queens College, University of Melbourne, and continued our dialogue. We heard from various Australian anthropologists on Aboriginal land rights, the role of anthropology in expert and forensic legal settings, the use of animation to preserve Yolngu culture and language, and much more. This event was for anyone who wished to learn more about what it means to be human in a rapidly changing world and engage in constructive and progressive dialogue.
