Professor Andrew Gunstone is a leading international authority in reconciliation. He is Associate Deputy Vice-Chancellor Reconciliation and Professor Indigenous Studies at Federation University, where he leads all reconciliation matters, including the National Centre for Reconciliation, Truth, and Justice, which he established in 2023, and is the leading national academic think-tank on reconciliation.

His current research, funded by academic, industry, government, and philanthropic funding, explores a broad range of areas, including substantive and performative reconciliation, community attitudes to reconciliation, multicultural engagements with reconciliation, national and regional truth-telling, effectiveness of RAPs, place-based reconciliation, and international reconciliation movements.

He is also Co-Chair of Reconciliation Victoria, Foundation Editor of the Journal of Australian Indigenous Issues, an Advisory Board member with the Canadian National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation, and a member of several national and regional reconciliation committees. He regularly provides advice on reconciliation and RAPs to corporates, industry, community, governments, and academia.

His latest book “Reflections on the Voice - during and after the campaign” is the first to explore the lessons from the Voice Referendum for our national reconciliation journey. Written for a general audience, it explores substantive reconciliation, racism, Indigenous rights, ‘equality’, education, community engagements, international agreements, allyship, and Voice, Treaty, and Truth.

Copies of “Reflections on the Voice- during and after the campaign” are for sale at this event for just $20, a savings of over 40% off the normal retail price. All the proceeds go towards funding a First Nations PhD scholarship on truth-telling. His book is also available from his university’s online store here, again with all proceeds going to a First Nations PhD Scholarship on Truth-Telling.

Complimentary refreshments available.
