Rate My Professor Bruce Pascoe

Pascoe's contributions include identifying areas for research collaboration, such as with the Yorta Yorta people at the University’s Dookie agricultural campus, and exploring native flavours, salads, tubers, and fruits. His work seeks to create dialogue between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal Australians regarding Indigenous agricultural and food traditions, while contributing to carbon neutrality in food production. Previously, he served as Adjunct Professor of Indigenous Knowledge at the Jumbunna Institute for Indigenous Education and Research at the University of Technology Sydney, where he received the 2019 UTS Vice-Chancellor’s Social Justice and Human Rights Award. He is also a board member of First Languages Australia and the Twofold Aboriginal Corporation in Eden. Through Dark Emu, a 2014 non-fiction work, Pascoe documents and argues for the restoration of forgotten food production and land management techniques employed by Indigenous communities over thousands of years.
