Understand Pacific thinking and perspectives
The Griffith Pacific Hub was established at the Griffith Asia Institute in 2020. It is led by Associate Professor Tess Newton Cain. The Griffith Pacific Hub is a forum for engagement and relationship building between Griffith University, the Pacific islands region, and the Pacific diaspora communities of Queensland and the rest of Australia.
Our mission is to share the Pacific research undertaken at Griffith to make it accessible and beneficial for Pacific policy makers, development practitioners, and communities.
Everything we do is underpinned and driven by a commitment to promote and amplify Pacific voices and perspectives. At the Griffith Pacific Hub we are committed to doing this with the Pacific, not to or for them.
Our work provides multiple platforms to share Pacific research from across the University to the wider community here in Australia, in the near neighbourhood and beyond. We support the design and delivery of learning, teaching, research, and engagement to build Pacific literacy across the University community and Australian society.
