Sanesie Dukuly
At Griffith, I gained the skills to drive social change and support my values. Growing up as a refugee in Guinea, my purpose is to advocate for the disadvantaged and uphold social justice and human rights. Now, as a statewide multicultural practice lead in the family and disability services sector, I can implement these principles in my work and contribute to making the world a better place.
Hannah Walker
The most important aspect shaping my university journey has been accessibility. Not only do we have mixed-mode learning, but we also receive extensive support from staff. The various placement opportunities, including overseas experiences and work with high-performance sports like surfing, NRLW, and AFLW, have been pivotal in building my confidence as an exercise scientist.
