Streamed live globally, the fourth annual Australian Rover Challenge (ARCh) took place between 20 – 21 March 2024 as University students from around Australia and the world battled it out with custom-built lunar rovers which they designed and built themselves in a simulated mission to the Moon. The 2024 competition saw 10 teams from universities from across Australia, Bangladesh, and Poland making this the largest ARCh so far.

Speaking from the South

Speaking from the South, a unique multi-day public event saw a gathering of some of the world's most celebrated writers and thinkers from the south.  The event series comes after a recent interest in ‘Southern Theory’ – an approach which critiques the dominance of Western models that centre on European and North American experiences and perspectives.
