PhD candidate and tutor, History, Deakin University
In 2017I completed a Bachelor of Arts (Hons)/Bachelor of Commerce majoring in History and Economics. I was awarded the 2016 Bowater Trust medal (Deakin Business School Graduate of the Year), and 2017 the Vice Chancellor’s prize for my Honours thesis titled ‘Co-operatives in Papua New Guinea: Economic and Political Development or Colonial Control?’. In 2018 I commenced a PhD at Deakin University on a Postgraduate Research Scholarship. My thesis is titled ‘The New Deal on the Ground in Papua New Guinea’ and is assessing how successful Australian colonial planners were in designing and implementing post-war colonial development in Papua New Guinea. The research project plans to emphasise the Papuan New Guinean perspective of the impact of post-war development on their lives.
