Olivia Evans

(She/her)
Indigenous Research Fellow, Australian National University

I am a Gomeroi woman and was born and raised in Newcastle, NSW on Awabakal land. I am currently a research fellow at the Australian National University and was awarded a PhD in Social Psychology from the University of Newcastle in 2019. My research focuses on allyship and prejudice towards Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, political psychology, inequality and the social determinants of health. My current projects include an ARC funded investigation of online strategies for increasing the social inclusion of working class university students and a longitudinal project investigating non-Indigenous attitudes before and after the Voice to Parliament referendum.
