Resources: Equity Scholarship Provision in Australian Universities forum

On 11 February 2015, the National Centre for Student Equity in Higher Education (NCSEHE) hosted a forum, Equity Scholarship Provision in Australian Universities: Insights and Directions, at the University of Canberra. The forum covered the findings derived from research conducted by the NCSEHE in late 2014 into the equity scholarships already provided by Australian universities. This research was conducted against the backdrop of the government’s proposed higher education reforms which included the introduction of a $1 in $5 Commonwealth Scholarships scheme.

Below are the resources arising from the event, including the forum brochure, PowerPoint presentations and reference materials, and select audio recordings and transcriptions.
