candidates, Diverse Genders, Sexesand Sexualities (DGSS), precariously 
employed and/or people living with disabilities who can contribute to 
our charge for diversity as we strive to grow a vitally inclusive 
research culture.

  * Scholarly articles or monographs
  * Dissertations

  * Film
  * Performance-based research
  * Exhibition proposals
  * Research-based syllabi to grow student research

The appointed Fellow will have access to the Collection under the 
guidance of the AFIRC staff.

The Fellowship will provide a stipend of $5000 (AUD) which includes 
travel costs if the recipient is not from Melbourne.
The Fellow will be required to participate in an accessible public event 
that engages on a topic related to their work. This could be in the form 
of an informal In-Conversation, or a panel style event and will 
befacilitated by RMIT Culture.
