Fearless
Minds

Meet some of Flinders University’s most fearless minds as they bring you their latest research from a diverse range of fields.

Fearless Minds is an interview series designed to feed your curiosity and offer insights into topics that are challenging and changing the world, such as violence against women with disability, how to preserve dignity at end of life, and how invisible violence is shaping young people's lives.

Join us online to view the amazing work being conducted by Flinders early-mid career researchers from a diverse range of backgrounds. They share recent research insights and projects, their inspiration behind the work they do, and their journey to becoming an expert in their field. Flinders' Fearless Minds interview series is not to be missed.

Join the Fearless Network.

“

Don't be afraid to take intellectual risks. Ask hard questions and challenge yourself. That applies to your research, your educational decisions or even your networking... Ask informed questions. Don't be afraid to look silly because your ideas are different or seem far-fetched to others.

— Associate Professor Jonathan Benjamin.

like-minded community of individuals who are passionate about changing the world around them through research, education and conversation.
