Dr Holly Charles
Holly is a Yorta Yorta and Gunai woman living on Yorta Yorta country, and a Research Fellow in the Centre. She formerly worked as a lawyer in Commonwealth agencies, and has experience across government, community advocacy and education sectors. Holly’s doctoral research critically examined the racial logics underpinning the colonial legal system through the example of the unsuccessful Yorta Yorta native title case. Her research interests include race and the law, justice beyond colonial systems, and the role of First Nations laws and knowledges in asserting sovereignty and shaping self-determined futures.
The ARC Centre of Excellence for Indigenous Futures is supported by its partners and funded by the Australian Government through the Australian Research Council.
