Australia’s first Professor of Pasifika heritage, Jioji Ravulo, is the Chair of Social Work and Policy Studies at the University of Sydney. His story starts at a barbeque in Western Sydney in the 1970’s. His work combines the perspectives of both his Western and his Pasifika heritages and it shows how, instead of competing against each other, different world views can be blended into holistic and inclusive visions for the future.
