It's a university like no other, in one of the remotest places in Australia, where less than 1 per cent of Indigenous students go on to higher education. This is 'bush uni', and this cohort is days away from graduating.

At just 20 years old, Ms Yibarbuk was already working as a ranger in Gunbalanya.

On top of mastering university-level assignments, the students have learnt about bush medicines, kinship systems, local history and the impacts of colonisation.Dennis Daniels grew up on the traditional country of the Budal Yutpundji-Milwarapara people in Urapunga and was an assistant teacher in Ngukurr."This course has made a big difference in my life because of the western and cultural way of learning," Mr Daniels said.

“After year 12, there are no pathways to university for [young Aboriginal people],' Mr Rogers, a co-founder of the Bush university, said.” This sounds like a failure of Govt schools. Graduating yr 12 without skills needed for Uni is a Govt education problem?

University degree in weaving bits of grass, followed by non-job for life as a 'ranger' complete with obligatory Toyota 4wd and unlimited free diesel. Truly the most downtrodden and oppressed people in human history.
