As the Institute completes its tenth year we have an opportunity not only to report on our 2016 activities but also to look back across a record of learning and achievement.

When the Australia-Asia-Pacific Institute was established in 2007 there was a need for a supportive and productive organization that would serve the needs of Humanities and Social Science researchers as well as the strategic priorities of the University. The national academic research framework was then a new approach that, in some respects, was confronting as well as exciting. We all learned on the job, adapting to new challenges as they – rather frequently – arose.

They still do. We are at the beginning of another reorientation of national research priorities emphasising engagement and impact as well as quality publications. AAPI is engaging with these adjustments as we always have. While change is not always a comfortable experience it has, in our case, been the spur for many of the achievements of our members and associates – around a hundred of them over the last ten years.

This annual report for 2016 once again demonstrates the commitment of our members and associates as well as the quality of their research through extensive publications, significant competitive and other grants, awards, promotions and an ever-evolving suite of new projects to take us into the research future. What that future might hold is, of course, to some extent uncertain. But I am certain that the people who make up this research institute will continue to excel into our second decade.

1 About AAPI

The Australia-Asia-Pacific Institute is organised in four major groups, reflecting the research strengths within its membership.

A central element of AAPI’s operation is the facilitation of research careers within the institute and through the Faculty of Humanities.

To further this aim, AAPI provides an ongoing program of research development activities and opportunities, including:

workshops

seminars

mentoring

‘hot groups’

publication

project incubation

online researcher toolbox

Items added to the Researcher Toolbox in 2016 include:

• Dr Susan Leong: ‘What they DON’T tell you before you embark on a PhD!’

• Dr Tim Pitman (Faculty of Humanity’s Research Development Advisor): ‘How to write an effective grant application’.

• Emeritus Professor Roy Jones: ‘How to get academic writing published – some thoughts from a recovering editor’.

• Professor of Indian Ocean Studies, Dennis Rumley: ‘Academic writing first principles: The message is the medium’.

• John Curtin Distinguished Professor, Dawn Bennett: ‘How does authorship work?’

These practical articles are available online to all Curtin University staff and students and can be accessed under ‘Resources’ on the AAPI website.

These activities are advertised throughout the Faculty and are of interest to researchers at all stages of their careers and, in many cases, to HDR students.
