What does being a #CurtinGrad mean to you? 🎓💛 Since graduating in 2022, Grace Anderson (M Human Rights 2022) has been grateful for her time at Curtin, which gave her the practical tools to pursue her passion for human rights. “I am so proud to say I went to Curtin working in the human rights sphere; the faculty members are so visible and active in advocacy and reform; I am so grateful.” As the world was emerging from #COVID19 lockdowns, Grace was able to complete her dissertation in her final semester while travelling the world. Her biggest goal this year is to launch her podcast with Amnesty International Australia, which will give a voice to people with lived experience of human rights abuses. “During my studies, I found that learning about an issue from someone who had experienced it was much more compelling. I am hoping this platform promotes a wider understanding of human rights issues that face Australians.” Want more inspiring graduate stories?

Life hasn’t been easy for Aldan Clinch, spending most of his younger years in and out of prison. Despite his struggles, Aldan Clinch always knew he was destined for something better. During his last stint at Casuarina Prison, Aldan enrolled in the Indigenous Tertiary Enabling Course (ITEC) prison program, run by the Curtin AHEAD team. Through the program, ITEC tutor Narelle Guest helped guide Aldan and other Casuarina students to dream of a future that could be unlocked through education. The hope Narelle was instilling in her students inspired her daughter, Eve to support the ITEC prison program. Now, both mother and daughter are working to minimise the barriers students from the ITEC prison program face while transitioning back into the community. Through this support, Aldan completed the ITEC program and is now on the path to completing an Environmental Science degree at Curtin. Thank you to our amazing Curtin community, when we come together, we can make a powerful impact! 💫 🖤❤️💛 #CurtinUniversity #CurtinCommunity #WesternAustralia #Aboriginal #TorresStraitIslander #Education #Leadership #HigherEducation #MakingADifference #CommunityMatters #Thankyou #WorkingTogether
