On behalf of Universities Australia’s members, we present to you the second annual report required by the Universities Australia’s Indigenous Strategy 2022–2025.

Universities Australia, the Deputy Vice-Chancellor Indigenous Committee, and the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Higher Education Consortium would like to acknowledge the significant contributions UA’s members undertook in completing this year’s annual survey, using the new survey software and data collection method.

We are pleased that the findings of this report provide further evidence of the significant contributions Indigenous peoples are continuing to make in the higher education sector. Many colleges and schools are experiencing the benefits of incorporating Indigenous ways of knowing, doing, and being into their curricula. Additionally, an increasing number of Senior Executive teams are benefiting from the inclusion of Senior Indigenous leaders and their expertise.
