Breaking barriers between First Nations kids and science (w/ Corey Tutt)

  • Summary

  • Corey Tutt is a Kamilaroi man from NSW and a champion for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). Corey speaks with Jess about Closing the Gap target (5) Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students achieve their full learning potential and related targets.

    As a young person, Corey developed a love of STEM subjects but found little encouragement for Aboriginal people to pursue careers in STEM. In 2018, Corey founded DeadlyScience, a not-for-profit organisation that provides STEM resources to remote schools in Australia and connects young Indigenous people with STEM professionals.

    Listen Learn Respect is the National Apology Foundation’s motto – and the name of this podcast. The not-for-profit foundation was set up after Prime Minister Kevin Rudd left politics to monitor progress in Closing the Gap between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians. In this series of Listen, Learn, Respect, host and National Apology Foundation co-chair Jessica Rudd takes a closer look at some of these targets with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who are working to close the gap. We acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the land on which we work – the Turrbal and Jagera peoples – and the Traditional Owners of the lands you are listening on.
