Biography

Sam Dalgarno is a postdoctoral fellow at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) in the Arts, Design & Architecture division. His research focuses on Aboriginal history, memory, and public history. Dalgarno earned his PhD from Monash University in 2023, with a doctoral thesis that examined the production and reception controversies surrounding the 1997 Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission’s report titled 'Bringing Home' on Aboriginal child separation. Currently, he is engaged in a research project funded by the Australian Research Council, led by Professor Heidi Norman, concentrating on governance of Aboriginal affairs in New South Wales and the evolution of self-determination policies enacted by the State Government since the 1980s. His work seeks to describe the measures taken by government bureaucracy to label Aboriginal self-determination and to examine the forms of governance that Aboriginal people adopted during that period.
