Global Encounters & First Nations Peoples: 1000 Years of Australian History

该奖学金旨在研究澳大利亚土著人民与海上旅行者之间一千年来的动态接触。该项目希望使用一个跨学科、多语言的团队，通过综合澳大利亚和欧洲收藏的历史、考古、人类学和语言学资料，产生新的理解。预期的结果包括澳大利亚在全球勘探中的角色的创新重建，持久的国际合作，以及一个巨大的开放，互动和翻译的数据库。这将带来巨大的好处，创造一所新的跨学科知识学校，有可能重塑澳大利亚的历史、国家认同和世界地位。

This fellowship aims to examine one thousand years of dynamic encounters between Australia’s Indigenous peoples and voyagers from the sea. The project expects to use an interdisciplinary, multilingual team to generate new understandings by synthesising historical, archaeological, anthropological and linguistic sources from Australian and European collections. Expected outcomes include an innovative reconstruction of Australia’s role in global exploration, enduring international collaborations, and a massive open, interactive and translated database. This should provide significant benefits, creating a new transdisciplinary intellectual school, with the potential to recast Australia’s history, national identity, and place in the world.
