Our research domains include a wide range of disciplines, dedicated to advancing knowledge and solving complex regional challenges.
Research that enables sustainable production.
Research that contributes to carbon reduction through renewable energy innovation, sustainable use of biomass and natural capital, and the protection and restoration of freshwater, terrestrial and marine ecosystems.
Charles Sturt researchers are making new discoveries to ensure that all regional Australians lead dignified and rewarding lives.
Research that builds community capability and reduces barriers to social, economic and political participation.
Linkage research across all domains that builds innovative and digitally connected communities free from the risk of cyber attack.
Charles Sturt’s commitment to delivering high-quality research for the regions is driven by our Yindyamarra values. As Distinguished Professor Stan Grant Jnr eloquently observes:
“Yindyamarra is more than a word, it is a way of being. A philosophy. It means to understand country, but it calls on us to find ourselves in our country. Country holds us, it contains us, it resonates within us. Country remembers us. What country gives to us, it asks of us. To understand country is to understand ourselves.”
Yindyamarra brings Western knowledge and Indigenous wisdom together in a voyage of discovery. With Yindyamarra we embrace caring and stewardship for Country and being good ancestors to future generations.
