Pacific Research in Inclusive and Specialist Education
Pacific Research in Inclusive and Specialist Education (PRISE) are a team of experienced inclusive development practitioners and professional development providers with broad knowledge and expertise in working in the Pacific. Our philosophy is to create capacity to ensure sustainable improved practices in partnership with communities and stakeholders.
Within our range of skills and abilities and professional knowledge, we bring: research and evaluation capability; current evidence-based professional development to inform teacher practice; a global best practice understanding of inclusive education; experience of working inside Pacific classrooms; and working with Pacific educators that overtly reflect and respect the local education context.
The University of Newcastle acknowledges the traditional custodians of the lands within our footprint areas: Awabakal, Darkinjung, Biripai, Worimi, Wonnarua, and Eora Nations. We also pay respect to the wisdom of our Elders past and present.
