Podcast description: In the final episode of our first season, we sit down with Craig Seinor-Davies about what it means to create meaningful pathways for marginalised groups across our institutions. Craig is a proud Darug man, and the Indigenous Employment Manager here at the University of Sydney. Tune in to hear Craig share his reflections on identity, home, culture, and how his professional experience in community work and supporting at-risk youth through mentoring and holistic support networks influences his work for creating culturally safe and inclusive spaces. We explore what cultural competence and cultural safety look like in practice and unpack the lessons that shape his approaches to equity and inclusion.
