Interests: My PhD research is examining the identities of Dinka women living in Australia using oral history and auto-ethnographic techniques. This covers a range of fields including: globalisation, refugee studies, identity and the history of South Sudan. My Honours research project examined the educational experiences of Sudanese refugee students at schools in Africa and Australia.

Email: anne.harris2@live.vu.edu.au
Interests: My doctoral research uses documentary film as arts-based education research to examine the experiences of Sudanese young women (18-25) in Australia. Their 10-minute documentaries identify challenges, successes and advice about school and its role for former refugees integrating into Australian culture, with a focus on young women in particular. I am interested in liaising with others involved in research into educational experiences of young Sudanese in Australia.
