Inclusion for all - video transcript

[Amanda Acutt, 2019 Graduate]

The Policy Futures program is very much underpinned by the idea of diversity and inclusion.

[Sindy Banh, 2019 Graduate]

For me one of the key values that really resonates to what I believe is the value of celebrating diversity and acknowledge people's differences.

[Peta Harrington, 2018 Graduate]

Regardless of what your background is, you can really see how you bring something unique to the table.

[Henry Heritage, 2020 Graduate]

Diversity in thought and opinion and policy development is critical because ultimately policy should reflect on the interests and the variety in our public and our community, which in itself is inherently diverse.

[Ubong Ntuk, 2018 Graduate]

The Policy Futures program has a room for graduates from all disciplines and from all backgrounds, and you'll find that your uniqueness is a strength.

[Olivia Witt, 2022 Graduate]

So the program attracts and recruits a hugely diverse cohort. We come from all different disciplines, we come from all different life experiences and professional experiences, and I really feel like the program allows you to really be yourself and really thrive in the workplace environment.

[Helen Reeves, 2022 Graduate]

I believe the program supports all types of candidates. Myself, I'm neurodivergent and I've found that I've been fully supported all the way through program from the application process all the way through to the assessment centre. And then upon gaining employment with the program, I have found that my supervisors have been wonderful, they've accepted my differences, ensured that I have the accommodations I need to bring my best self to work.
