This group liaised extensively with AIME staff based in Sydney (before permanent staff were located in Adelaide) to commence the communication and promotion of the AIME Program to UniSA students. The group succeeded in gathering over 300 Expressions of Interest from UniSA students to be involved in 2013 and played a major role in ensuring a successful start to AIME at UniSA.

Experience MentoringKylie Spencer, Leo Coldbeck-Shackley, Kimberly Sun, Renee Sporne  This team investigated the benefits of a university-wide mentoring program and made a series of recommendations regarding the structure and format of such a program. Recommendations were passed on to Divisional Head with and resulted in several UniSA Divisions taking on some of the recommendations for peer-mentoring programs.

This is My CultureDianne Dahim, Amy Dangerfield, Kent Kwun, Paige Labone, James Withey

The objective of ‘This is My Culture’ was to strengthen cultural awareness and understanding through allowing students to share their culture with their peers and community via their artwork.  Students were to be invited to produce artwork that exemplifies their cultural background, QR codes next to the artwork would provide further detail on the artist and the meaning of the artwork. Aspects of this proposal were incorporated into Reconciliation Week and Multi-cultural Week events at UniSA from 2013.
