The Australian Centre for Student Equity and Success acknowledges Indigenous peoples across Australia as the Traditional Owners of the lands on which the nation’s campuses are situated. With a history spanning more than 60,000 years as the original educators, Indigenous peoples hold a unique place in our nation. We recognise the importance of their knowledge and culture, and reflect the principles of participation, equity, and cultural respect in our work. We pay our respects to Elders past, present, and future, and consider it an honour to learn from our Indigenous colleagues, partners, and friends.

Event information

The Australian Centre for Student Equity and Success (ACSES) invites you to the inaugural Evidence for Action: Equity Frontiers Forum, which will be held in-person in Perth (Curtin University, 139 St Georges Tce, Perth) on 13 March 2025.

A LIVESTREAM of the event will also be available. Please ensure that you select the correct ticket type when registering.

The Equity Frontiers Forum puts a spotlight on evidence. It brings together equity practitioners and researchers to learn from the lessons and emerging evidence of two practitioner-led impact evaluations, and to help generate further evidence of impact to support equity practice.

The Forum will be a day filled with workshops, presentations, and discussions designed to help practitioners use evidence to achieve their goals of equitable outcomes.

Our guest speakers include:

  • Equity practitioners and trial teams from Curtin University (Ella Ewart, Emma Pelliccione, Callan Lavery) and The University of Notre Dame Australia (A/Prof Ainslie Robinson, Lexi Rollins, Robbie Knox, Michelle Morrison)
  • Specialists in impact evaluation designs using randomised or quasi-experimental approaches (A/Prof Mark Robinson, Dr Cassy King, Dr Patricia Vermillion Peirce)
