About this position
Monash University is recruiting a Postdoctoral Research Fellow to join the ARC Centre of Excellence for the Elimination of Violence Against Women (CEVAW) and its Future Lives and Violence Against Women workstream.
The project investigates the paid and unpaid workforce responding to violence against women across Pacific Island countries and Papua New Guinea. The fellow will contribute Indigenous-centred and culturally grounded research on the current and future Indigenous family violence sector, generating evidence about the working conditions, capabilities, and resources needed by the workforce.
Key research activities include leading fieldwork and qualitative data collection across multiple Pacific and PNG sites, managing qualitative data, and co-designing an analytical audit framework that respects local contexts. The framework will support training and practical development for front-line Indigenous family violence workers. The role also involves co-supervising research support staff, mentoring higher degree research students, contributing to research training and ethics programs, producing high-impact publications, presenting at international conferences, and supporting competitive funding proposals.
The fellow will work within CEVAW, an interdisciplinary research environment focused on the structural drivers of violence against women and evidence-based approaches to policy and practice. The position offers collaboration with CEVAW Chief Investigators, Partner Investigators, international partner organisations, and Professor Kyllie Cripps in a supportive research setting focused on gender equity, Indigenous studies, community-led research, and transformative outcomes.
